profiles on vista if this folder is an issue

Ah yes that is another issue. You didn't say you were using mandatory
profiles. The issue is that there is a folder called Locallovw in the profile
on the machine that will NEVER roam and if you delete the local cached version
of the profile you foul it up. That folder needs to stay on the workstation
for things like java and host of other programs to work. You could try and copy
your profile to workstation and copy the locallow folder into it and see if
that user can log in. Mandatory profiles are a real problem on Vista
especially if you need to run java apps. There was a time you could just dump
the sun folder into the Application data folder in the profile and it would
roam so you didn't have to download it again. No more it is now called appdata
and resides within the locallow folder which as I said can and will never ever
be able to roam.

Hi Jim,
The GPC service is running ok, because I can log on as a nother user with a
roaming profile and it works ok. Also I dont think the pc itself is affected,
so not sure last known good restore point would make any difference.
I have created 2 different profiles one for teachers which is roaming and works
ok, and another mandatory for students which fails. Once I disable the
mandatory profile by renaming the Mandatoryprofile.v2 folder to something else,
the students can log on, but with a temporary profile. so I guess the problem
lies with creating mandatory profiles. i have see a lot of issues on google,
and no resolution so far.
Thanks

Make sure the the GPC service is running. Try going back to your last known
good restore point.

Hi Guys,
We are trying to setup mandatory user profile for our students on Vista. we
currently have one working ok on XP, but not sure what we are doing wrong. we
keep getting this error message.
The Group Policy Client service failed the logon. Access is denied.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
