Folder Redirection GPO

Guest

I'm trying to redriect My Documents on XP clients to \\homeshare\My Documents . If i use the GPO's option of "rediect to home share" is succesfully redirects to the root of there share \\server\share$ instead of \\sever\share$\My Documents . I have set the GPO to specific locations and tried the following with no luck

%homeshare%\My Document

\\%homeshare%\My Document

%homeshare%%homepath%My Document

All of these give me path not found in the RSOP

Any help will be appreciated

It's because of the space sign in "My documents". Use quotation marks

"%homeshare%\My Documents

Of course, My Documents folder must exist

1) Do folders "My Documents" exist in %homeshare%? If not you will always get the same error
2) Type at command prompt "set". Is the variable "homeshare" exists?
