Hello MVP's,

I am looking for a way to take care of some users who roam between
different physical sites with T-1 connectivity between the sites. I want to
be able to have the users roam between the two or more sites without
congesting my WAN links when they login with one user account in a single AD
domain. I had thought to have the local server at each site replicate
between them at key shares for their home directory, however, I can't see
how you can set multiple login servers or profile paths in the user accounts
and it doesn't appear that redirected folders or offline folders to multiple
servers is doable (I think).

Has anyone seen/done this or know the answer?

Thanks!

Greg

It is doable but there was a bug in (at least early service packs) where you
have to get it working under some weird circumstance (I cannot recall all
of the details at the moment but it should be a KB article by now).

I think it was something about logging on an Admin first (getting it right),
....

It didn't make much sense but it "set" the feature.
