[THIN] Re: Roaming Profiles for XP

Hi Joe,

You can have multiple profiles co-existing by assigning an environment
variable as part of the profile name. We did this for a customer a while ago
who was upgrading their terminal services operating system. The profile
location was something like
\\server\user_share\%username\%osv%\<file://server/user_share/%25username/%25osv%25/>.
So the different o.s paltform TS servers has different osv environment
variables. Windows ignores double \\ in a network share so that would give
you a fair bit of scope.

For example if a standard desktop didn't have a profile env variable but VDI
desktops did, you'd have different profile locations for each platform.

regards,

Rick
