When you use this custom Adm does it conflict with the built in Folder
redirection that uses client side extensions?
Just curious...

You can redirect anything under the "User Shell Folders" registry key. Here
is a quick example of a group policy adm template you can use. You can set
the data to a UNC path (\\fileserver\%username%$\cookies) or use a mapped
drive (H:\cookies). This example will place the cookies under a folder in
the users home drive, so it will not roam with the profile.

[THIN] Roaming Profiles and Folder

PM
Please respond to
thin
Hello all,
I am using Roaming Profiles (Metaframe XP Farm, win2000) and have used
group policy to redirect folders. This seems to work fine, only problem is
cookies folder. This folder can not be redirected using standard GPO
policies.
Number of files in Cookies folder increases and now slows down logon for
several users.
I have tried searching but dont find any infomation how to deal with this
problem.
I dont want to disable cookies totally since this will cause problems for
some users.
Best regards,
Jonny Tobiassen
