Jim,
Isn't that where the flex profile kit would come in handy?

Thats great and I am aware of this solution but we can't use mandatory
profiles or we would. Users need to be able to change their Outlook and =
word
settings to their preference. JK

I am publishing two farms one NT 4.0/MF 1.8 and one Win2k/MF XP all from =
one
NFuse 1.6 applications page (using columbia to combine farms). I use a
mandatory profiles on each server, and point every user in the domain to =
the
following TS profile path: \\%COMPUTERNAME%\profiles$\default.man
No matter what server they connect to they get the mandatory profile =
that is
stored on that computer (You do of course have to create a profile on =
each
server and make a profiles$ share). It maybe Win2k or NT4.0. The =
initial
setup for the main profile takes a little bit of work, and you when you =
make
changes/updates you have to make the same on each of the servers (I =
write
simple scripts), but over all administration is very simple and straight
forward. This also allow each server to be independent of a centralizes
profile server.

We use roaming profiles stored on a network share. While we are on the
subject of profiles, is anyone running citrix apps via Nfuse(1.6) in a =
mixed
NT 4 and 2000 environment? The problem we have is that our apps are
published via Nfuse between NT 4 and 2000 servers. If a user opens up a =
2000
app first and then goes to open up Outlook which is on the NT 4.0 server
their cache and other settings end up pointing to a nonexistend =
documents
and settings/profilename folder because NT 4 stores that info in =
profiles.
This causes them to lose the ability to open attachments in Outlook =
because
there is no folder for them to cache it into.
In other words when they log into a 2000 app their cache key in their
profile gets set to documents and settings, then if they log into =
outlook
even if they closed the 2000 app their cache folder under the shell =
folders
key in the registry is set to point to documents and settings instead =
of
the winnt/profiles directory. They can't open attachments until we open =
the
profile in Regedt32 and delete the cache key again. If users open any =
app on
the NT 4 servers first and then open the 2000 app they don't have the
problem because the cache directory gets pointed to the proper place. =
This
is probably something hybrid profiles might fix but it is a pretty
aggravating problem.
