Hi Neil,

Like I said....they are huge and just the politics alone between the
differing regions (each with their own sub-domain in the AD) would be a
nightmare...don't want to go there.  We also calculated, that although the
drive letter for the home drive is common (M), there are 700+ differing
locations for this dependent on user location.

And its advanced redirection....not complex....sorry...Mondays!

? Complex redirection, and months?

What's wrong with using group membership, as a big catch-alls - or at least
catch-a-lots?
