In practice, it depends. Since my last message I've recalled that roaming between NT4 and 2k in particular would cause problems with Outlook e-mail passwords (not because of version differences, but because of 2k's crappy Protected Storage service). I also saw issues with IE's autocomplete. If it was enabled and a user logged in to 2k and then went back to NT4 then IE on NT4 would hang whenever it tried to access the Auto Complete info that IE on 2k had saved (such as a username). As someone else pointed out, it all depends on your environment. Test, test, test. ________________________________ From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Matthew Shrewsbury Sent: Wednesday, November 02, 2005 2:06 PM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: Mixing TS profile OSes Interesting, if all the apps are the same on each server you think the OS can be different and it will still work? Thanks for the info!

The biggest issues that we did encounter were mainly application oriented. For example, if a NT4 user who had an OL 98 config opened OL2k3 on a W2k3 server then if the logged back into a NT4 TS then OL98 wouldn't work right anymore because of changes that OL2k3 made. ________________________________ From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Matthew Shrewsbury Sent: Wednesday, November 02, 2005 1:14 PM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Mixing TS profile OSes I have not been able to find a document explaining if any the problems that can occur when mixing TS profiles with different OSes. For example if a user has a TS roaming profile and logs into both a W2K and W2K3 server will the profile be corrupted or cause problems?
