The adding of the PRF file from command line works fine.... I next looked
at my MST file which seems also to be fine... Here it is. The fact that
path is not a UNC path isnt the problem is it? I made all the fields in
the wizard be UNC path but thats not how they show here.

I used a similar prf in my testing and it worked fine. Two differences in
my PRF:
1) a setting to make the Exchange mailbox the default store :
; **************************************************************
; Section 1 - Profile Defaults
; **************************************************************
[General]
Custom=1
DefaultProfile=Yes
OverwriteProfile=Append
ModifyDefaultProfileIfPresent=TRUE
; NEXT LINE MAKES EXCHANGE THE DEFAULT
DefaultStore=Service1
2) a setting not to overwrite any existing Exchange settings:
[Service1]
; DON'T OVERWRITE EXISTING EXCHANGE
OverwriteExistingService=No
UniqueService=Yes
MailboxName=%UserName%
HomeServer=Fallsdell
AccountName=Microsoft Exchange Server
If you run the .prf manually, does it update the user's default profile?
If so, then we've validated that the .prf itself is good. The next step
would be to look at the mst file with the MST Viewer and confirm that it
has the right PRF in it and that ImportPRF is set to that file.

Again, you shouldn't be using any name at all if you want the default
profile to be modified.
And it would still be useful to see your PRF file.
I have tried it with a name "test" too and it didnt work either.
You cannot use an environment variable to generate the profile name.
You
need to apply a static name.
In this scenario, however, you wouldn't want to create a new profile at
all,
but would want to modify the existing default profile.
If you have a PRF file that isn't working as you expect, please post
the
first 5 sections.
I have an AD running and deploy a few packages.
I want to deploy Outlook 2003 using a custom MST.
I am upgrading from a standard SMTP server to Exchange 2003 and I want
to
deploy outlook 2003 over top of the existing installation migrating
the
POP3
account and adding the Exchange account. The MST i have created is
set
to
(on step 17 of the custom install wizard) create a default profile of
%username%. I want to keep the POP account and just add the Exchange
account. It only seem to deploy adding the exchange account if the
profile
doesnt already exist.What the heck is wrong?
