I set up a second disk for a home directory under Windows
XP. The home directory is mounted in the C drive
under /home. It contains the user profiles
( /home/username/profile ) and the my documents folders
( /home/username/documents ). I set the profile paths to
point to the proper directory and set the my documents
location accordingly.

The problems is: When I change entries in my addr4ess book
it writes the data to the documents and setting folder
rather than to the user profile.

The second problem is that I get strange access denied
messages when trying to delete files and directories even
though the permissions allow it.

The OS also seems to copy the /home/username/profile
setting to the documents and settings folder.
