Copying Profiles

[Guest]

Hi Everyone,

At the moment, I have created a base roaming profile (a profile I use for a
new users which has the desktop setup the way I want it). When I setup a new
user, I usually log into XP using the ID for the base roaming profile and use
the "Copy To" command to create a new copy of the base profile.

Is there an easier way? Could I copy the base profile folder on my file
server (where all my profiles are stored) and rename the directory to user1,
user2, etc?

Thank you,
D
