User Profile SID

[Paul]

What are the steps to point a domain user profile sid to
the local user profile? I have installed a new domain
server, and want the users to retain their original user
profiles.

Hi

We solve the workstation to domain user profile change by (in the registry)
changing the profile path for the new domain user to point to the old
user's profile folder, see article below.

If the user is not a local admin, you might need to to something on the
permission side. Use tip 4631 and 2240 in the 'Tips & Tricks' at
