i have a pc with w2kpro on it and when a user logs in, they get a desktop but
there's no folder for them in the documents and settings folder. this
happens with several users on this box. any ideas?
 
Sounds like they logon as guests.

Hmm, i don't think so, as the guest account has been disabled, is there
something else i should be looking at? the only thing in the documents and
settings folder are administrator, all users and default user.user login is
supposed to authenticate to the domain. there is another ntuser.dat file in
\%systemroom%\winnt\repair folder. user login is supposed to authenticate to
the domain, and this does appear to function correctly. we have decent
functionality but a few wierd things with certain apps which led me to the
docs and settings folder in the first place.
 
First try creating a new local account and logging on locally to rule out
incorrect drive permissions.
