Better yet, the folder sharing feature isn't useful on an ESX so just
disable it.

In Regedit go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\NetworkProvider\
Value:  Order
Remove the hsfs entry, but leave the others.

Delete the hsfs.dat file from the local Default User profile and the user's
profiles.

Subject: [THIN] VMWare & UphClean

Hi all,
I'm configuring a new server with VMWare ESX loaded on it and also
running UphClean to get rid of the roaming profiles.  The problem
is that it's leaving an Application Data / Vmware / hgfs.dat
file in the profile and not totally deleting the whole thing
when a user logs off.  Then, of course, it creates a duplicate,
so at the end of the day I've got hundreds of profiles.
Has anybody seen this?  Is there a way to tell UphClean to
nuke that file/folder too (I didn't see anything in it's
registry entries)?  TIA  -George
