We are looking at a *very* similar problem. We are migrating apps from a
UK server to a US one. We wanted to have a new server in the US set to
US locale but of course when we migrate apps the dates are wrong. So we
changed things back to UK on the new server but it seems that although
we've changed it, it doesn't affect all users, even those that have
never logged in.
I had guessed that the regional settings were stored in the users
profile, but maybe there is more to it. I'll do more testing on this.

I have just introduced a second Citrix server into existing farm. I
have implemented roaming profiles (this basically involved copying all
the existing profiles from the existing citrix server to our file server
and setting the terminal servers profiles path to point to the profile
on the file server - this has worked great).
The problem I have is on the new server, many of the users have US date
settings by default, where on the original server they have UK. Logging
into the new server as administrator and checking the regional settings,
both the administrator (domain and local) and default user are set to
"United Kingdom", and the only keyboard installed is "United Kingdom".
However if I make one of the problem users "Domain Admin" (so they have
access to the control panel), both the regional settings and keyboard
are set to "United States".
The one thing I have noticed is on the login dialog box on the new
server there is a "EN" indiator which is not present on the original
server. I am thinking that I have some configuration error somewhere on
the server --- I can't find it though.
Any pointers in the right direction would be greatly received.
Thanks,
Steve
