1. I agree but there are needs to save tons and tons of mail, especially for
sales quotes and CYA situations. My default.prf maps everyone to a .pst on a
large networked drive so they can have both online mail and a pst.
2. I agree 100%!!!

Easy:
1) Don't use personal folders. Personal folders suck and should be destroyed.
2) Don't use PAB's. PAB's suck, and should be destroyed.
3) Use only the mailbox (and an OST if you must, for your travelling devices)
and the contacts as your user-created contact list.
then, it won't matter where they connect from, since all the info is stored on
there mailbox which is on the server.

Ok, maybe I need to clarify myself.
A user uses Nfuse at one office via DSL, goes to another office and connects to
my network (domain, LAN) (not the internet) via frame. If I have him using
outlook on the terminal server and not his local laptop, how will he be able to
use outlook? Am I just having a brain fart here and can't see the forest for
the trees? Seems I not understanding something or not properly explaining it.

The problem I have with that is, I have this one office that uses Nfuse to get
their e-mail, they also travel to other locations where they can connect to the
network via Frame-relay. If I set them up to use outlook (I'm assuming this is
what you're talking about) on the Terminal Server, then they can't use or will
have difficulty using Outlook via Frame. Correct?

Whoops, typo there....I meant: when users pull files from their PC it eats
bandwidth and slows things down...
I default my users to their Terminal Server Profile path which is
\\servername\share\%username% <file:///\\servername\share\%25username%25>

So are you saying the Term Server profile path is NOT on a network server?

In my opinion it's better to default to the Term Server Profile path...having
users pull and push files to and from the servers eats up bandwidth and to a
user it appears that Citrix is slow. They should be encouraged to use a
network drive.

Nope. That's why in most Citrix environments (as well as most corp
environments with AD) the MY Docs directory is redirected via GPO to the
homedir.
You could in theory change the my docs path in the user shells folders in the
registry to point to the client drive and path. But My guess is it would make
some things really slow

I'm sure this has been covered before so I'll call it easy.
Using Nfuse, a user using outlook tried to attach a document to an email. When
he goes to "My Documents", he is on the servers "My Documents" and not his
local. I go in and dig down to his local "My documents" using the defaulted
mapped drive for the client local drives. There has got to be a better way. Is
there a way to default a users "My Documents" to be his local and not on the
server while using Nfuse?
Make sense?
