User Profile size

[Greg]

Greetings,

I have implimented restricting profile size limits on our
xp professional desktops. We have approximately 200 users
on roaming profiles. I have implimented profile limits of
30mb and excluded large size directories to be able to
keep them under the profile size limit. I try to make the
profile size larger however I am unable to so so. It won't
allow any larger than 30mb. We are currently in the
process of emabling roaming profiles company wide 3500
users are are going to need to make this setting larger
for some specefic users.

I have done this through gpedit.msc user configuration>
administrative templates> system> user profiles> limit
profile size. when i enter 50000 for example it says the
figure is larger than the maximum allowed of 30000. Is
there any way around this? I have searched extensively on
this site, and have found nothing stating this is a known
issue. I have tried modifying this in the registry and it
automatically changes it back to 30000. Please let me
know if there is a way to change this if not what else we
can do to allow larger roaming profiles without using disk
quota's on our file servers.
