Found what was casing the temp profile names in Docs and settings We are migrating users form one domain to another. Users must have permissions for their new profile and the administrator should own their profile. If not it starts creating temp.domainname.000, temp.domainame.001 folders Now off to re-permission a few users....

Helps most of the time. I looked in the registry and the entry is not there for these users. NTUSER.dat is locked in the good profile directory. So it is very similiar to what you are talking about. Any suggestions for identifying what is keeping ntuser.dat locked? I check in managment console under shared folders/open files. Not there. Can't seem to identify what service is holding it open. _____ From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of BRUTON, Malcolm, FM Sent: Wed, April 6, 2005 10:25 AM To: 'thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [THIN] Re: local user profile getting created with .domain name e xtension See it all the time. We do have multiple domains with the same user ID's in each domain belonging to the same person. Users should however only use one account not multiple. We have policy to delete roaming profile on logout but I suspect when the profile is stuck and not unloaded it doesn't then delete the local copy of the profile. When same user logs back on it creates username.domainname type directories I have also seen it create temp profile dirs and then temp.domainname1and temp.domainname2 etc. Starting to use UPH and looking at a script to delete old profiles at system restart time Malcolm _____ From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Stratton, Doug MSER:EX Sent: 06 April 2005 17:40 To: 'thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [THIN] local user profile getting created with .domain name extension Don't know if anyone has run into this. This has happened to us in the past and it is happening again. We have a w2k server/cmfpsv3 environment. With roaming profiles. When some users log on they get a new profile created in documents and settings that has an extension. The extension is the domain. So for example dstratto.idor. I still have a copy of the original profile in documents and settings. It might be related to registry quota problems we have had but not sure. Any idea's what could cause this?
