Win2K all user profile

[Guest]

Hi,

How to setup the PC so any user logs on have the same desktop Environment
when they log on to any PC - My Domain server is WIN2K and the Workstation is
WIN2kPro.

Cheers,

They need to have"Roaming Profiles". I recommend you check
out www.microsoft.com for relevant pages on how to set them
up and how to configure them.

Thank You , but question is to setup a pc which should have one standard
profile no matter who logs on.
I understand that roaming profile lets users have their own profile
whererver they log on but this is not what I want.

When you wrote in your first post "any user logs on have the same
desktop Environment when they log on to any PC" you used the
exact words that describe roaming profiles. What you really
require is something much simpler: For users logging in the
***very first time*** to a given PC to get the same profile
as other sers of ***this PC***.

To do this you must establish the exact environment you want,
preferably while using a non-admin profile: Desktop colours,
location of shortcuts, EMail settings etc. etc. You then do this:
1. Reboot the PC.
2. Log on as an admin.
3. Control Panel / System / Advanced / User Profiles
4. Click the standard user's profile, then copy, then select
this destination: c:\documents and settings\default user.

In re this:

How then to create sets of these (User, Admin, Exec, Traveller, Guest, etc)
, and have them associated with respective Groups?
