| 693437 | 2008-07-29 22:09:00 | Hi everyone, Does anyone know how to connect a Windows NT 4.0 SP6 Workstation to a Windows Server 2003 domain? I have downloaded a trial copy of Server 2003 Enterprise and am trying it out on a VM. I can attach other real and virtual Windows 2000 Pro/XP Pro machines to it. Also, how can I redirect the 'My Documents' folder in each user account to go to the home drive (H) on the server, rather than the local machine and the desktop to redirect to a folder on the server too? |

| 693439 | 2008-07-29 23:56:00 | Use Group Policys for User doc's, I think its under user setting, folder redirector.... As for connecting NT to 2003 A/D, i'm not sure, I havent started a NT box for over 9 yrs!....Are you looking for the system app, or non-standard instructions...? |

| 693441 | 2008-07-30 00:19:00 | You are showing Local Policies.....are you on the 2003 server, should be domain policies, you are using wrong snap-in! When you click to add the snap-in it should ask for an object, use browse to select your domain User Config>Windows Settings>Folder Redirection |

| 693442 | 2008-07-30 00:37:00 | lol I'm really new to Server 03 networking - I'm studying it in a few weeks at uni and want to get a bit of background knowledge. These are the Administrative tools I have on the server - which one should I go into to set the redirection for MyDocs? www.imagef1.net.nz Can you give me step by step instructions? :) |

| 693443 | 2008-07-30 00:53:00 | I think this is what you're after (technet2.microsoft.com) BUT, as it says: Redirection to the home directory requires a client computer running Windows XP Professional, Windows XP 64-bit Edition (Itanium), or a Windows Server 2003 operating system. It does not work for Windows NT clients, Windows 2000 clients, or Windows XP Home Edition clients. |

| 693444 | 2008-07-30 01:38:00 | Ahh, of course, if Win 2000 cant use roaming profiles, I'm not surprised NT cant redirect folder | SolMiester (139) | ||
| 693445 | 2008-07-30 01:43:00 | Update... I have installed Group Policy Management and successfully linked it to my domain. I have set folder redirection for the Desktop (to \\server\files\desktop) and My Docs (to home dir). BUT when I log on, it's exactly the same as before - no redirected folders! :help: |
