Group Policy cannot set desktop icon path

When our Win2K servers were in an NT 4.0 domain we used the poledit app and
created a custom folder to contain desktop icons based on group membership in
order to lock down the TS desktop. Now since we're running AD there doesn't
seem to be an associated setting in one of the ADM files to accomplish this.
Any ideas? Thanks.
 
Do you mean redirection of the DEsktop folder?
That's in
[User Configuration\Windows Settings\Folder Redirection]

Thanks, yes that's what I was looking for.... still a little green w/ GP's.
What confused me is that in the GPMC even if you have them specified they
don't show up in the preview pane. I truly appreciate it.

That's strange. They do on my servers (if with preview pane you
mean the "Settings" tab, or something called very similar - can't
check correct name right now - one of the 4 tabs in GPMC).
