HI,
 
Sorry having a little bit of trouble getting my head round this loop
back processing or just need clarification in my thinking.
 
I haven't used this before and am faced with the possibility because of
a Vista roll out.
 
All our users currently use thin terminals and connect to 2000 servers
running metaframe XP.
 
I have the servers in an OU - with computers policy running against it.
The users are in a users OU - with computers policy attached to it.
 
So when they log in they get a combination of both.
 
Issue
    200 users are now going to initially use Vista because of one app
that is coming from head office.
    I still need some of these users to access a published Desktop to
access some apps form the Citrix boxes.
    Obviously the profile is going to have .v2 and all other users have
roaming profiles.
    I have Vista Users OU and policy created fine.
    If I use loop back processing at the Citrix Servers OU and attach
the original users policy to that OU does this mean that when the user
logs into Citirx it picks up the original users policy and applies this.
 
I know a lot of these settings eventually end up in the users registry
of roaming profile but my concern is if this profile gets corrupted on a
new user is introduced that has never logged onto the old environment.
 
sorry for the long post.
 
thanks
 
Ronnie
