We have been using roaming profiles to provide some basic consistency
across machines. The roaming profiles have become a source of constant
issues, most dealing with either growing size or corruption.
The roaming profiles are used to make the following items custom to the
user on the client machines as they move from machine to machine:
mapped drives, network printers, Outlook profiles, and IE Favorites.
We are a medium size site with 80+ Windows 2000/2003 servers, 25+
Windows 2003 active directory PDCs/BDCs, 3400 users, and about 2700
client machines mixed between Windows 2000 and Windows XP.
Two solutions we have looked at for replacing the functionality
provided by roaming profiles are:
1) Desktop Standard's PolicyMaker
(http://www.desktopstandard.com/PolicyMakerStandard.aspx)
2) Scriptlogic's Desktop Authority
(http://www.scriptlogic.com/products/desktopauthority/)
Can anyone suggest any other tools that would be good to look at?
Thanks in advance.
