Mapping shared folders 2. Setting up Proxy on IE 3. Setting up Outlook correctly based on his login name 4. Setting up some shortcuts on the desktop that file on one of the mapped shared folders 5. Setting up the network printer 6. Setting up default screen saver and other minor things That's all I can remember for now... I would like to get that done the first time a user logon into a machine. Does anyone use roaming profiles for most users??
