More background...
I am using NDS(Novell) as the directory service and use the Dynamic Local User
(which works great) to create the account. I am also roaming the user's
profile from a Novell server. There are other ways around the My Computer
thing (like forcing the save path's in each application to be on the file
server instead of the local user profile directory. This is a pain though and
most apps just assume use of My Computer out of the box.
Novell ZenWorks supposedly can manage the user's policy with an ADM file that
is managed inside NDS. Is there a place in an ADM file I can set this?
Forgive my ignorance of all things Microsoft.

You could do it in the user's registry in their shell folders (Personal) the
problem with this is that it often breaks the SETPATHS.CMD that is called by
userlogon (since it enumerates these) Ron OglesbySenior Technical Architect

I am not using Active Directory/User GPO's. Is there a method that doesn't rely
on these?

Subject: [THIN] Redirect My Computer's location This is probably an FAQ item
but I can't get to the FAQ on the website for some reason.
Is there a method of pointing My Computer for a user to a network path on a
central file server? From the Win 2003 launch I can recall that this is now a
simple option.
Is there a way to do this with Metaframe XP/FR2 on Win 2000?
