Roaming Profile issue on WIndows XP SP2 PC

C

CLarke

We have SBS 2003 SP2, exch sp2. All other users/computers will copy there
profile from the server to the workstation and Vice Versa. I can log in and
create a profile for this user on another workstation and it will copy back
in forth like it is supposed to. HOwever I have 2 computers where they will
not Update there roaming profiles. You log in on either of these computers
and it will only use the Local profile. COntrol Panel/System/Advanced/User
Profiles says it is a roaming profile, however when you select it the Copy to
box is greyed out (whether you are logged in as that user, or administrator).
On further investigation I found a registry entry to change to debug this
process further.
HKLM/software/Microsoft/windowsNT/CurrentVersion/Winlogon create a DWORD
called UserEnvDebugLevel and set it to 30002 Hex. It will then append to a
log file called %windir%\debug\usermode\userenv.log. (Make sure you turn
this off once finished. It can get very large). Below is the output.
Here is the logout.

The rest is the GPO processing of the logon.

I hope someone is able to shed some light on this.
For what it is also worth, these are very new PC's, XP SP2 OEM's with Office
2007. The rest have Office 2003. Yes I know this is not ideal, but I am not
concerned about the Outlook profile difference between 2003 and 2007.
I know also it is not a permissions issue, as I can perform exactly what I
require, ie roaming profile with these users on other PC's, Just not the 2
new ones.
Any ideas.

It may be a permissions or ownership problem with the local copy of the
profile, though. I'd check that out.

If this was a problem, then I would expect to get logon errors, and logout
errors. Also any changes i made would not be there next time I logged in.
Worth a try thanks, but not the issue here.

No sorry...The 2 PC's were pre built specials from another company, i have
just assumed there is a funny problem in the image they use, what that is I
have no idea. No one has admitted understanding the output from the log
file, or even offered a place where i could go to look...
