I am currently trying to make everyones profiles 'Roaming' for teh obvious reason, I have only done 1 person so far, however when they log on they get a message saying that they do not have permission to access "\\Server_name\Share".

I have added there name in the security tab of the share folder and it still will not work, he 'everyone' group and the 'users' group are both added in on this tab aswell and it still wont work.

I GIVE UP

Derek, have you set the share permissions as well as the ntfs permissions?

 

Yeah, I have shared the folder and selected the 'Maximum allowed' option

 

Have you given full control to everyone for the shared directory?
If not, give everyone full control.

You only need to give restricted permissions to the individual users directories.

 

Yeah Everyone has full control

 

I've just thought.If your accessing it through the \\Server_name\Share then you could double check that the directories that you've created for the users are named exactly the same as the users.

If they were different in any way and you accessed it through the share, then they wouldn't be found.

 

SORTED

I had the path to the profile wrong, doh!!

I had used \\Server_name\d$\User Profiles\%username%

Instead of \\Servername\User Profiles\%username%

Blonde moment there I think
