Back again!!
I have installed DFS on a member server, and as I wanted it to replicate to
our London office I choose the Domain DFS, at the moment I have this set up
as \\server in location 1\roaming profiles and \\server in location
2\roaming Profiles, I have put a test folder in and it works okay, arriving
in the London location in about 15 min. so that bit's okay

What I wanted to do was to set up some roaming profiles so that as some of
our users go to London on the odd day, I could set them up so that when they
log in in London they can pick there desktop up and everyone's happy, this
is where I get stuck!!

In the profile tab of the user, I can set where they get there desktop and
profiles from, but if I put in \\server in location 1\roaming Profiles (this
is where I put the test profile) it gets picked up okay and applied okay,
and this is replicated to London server okay.
Thinking about it when a user tries to log in from London they will still
pull their desktop from \\server in location 1.
So the question is what have I not done
sorry if that was long winded

Duncan
 
Hi Duncan , DFS integrates with AD Sites and should pick up the profiles
form the local replica in the site. You can also use
\\domain.com\DFSroot\share.
