Windows 7 Roaming

We have deployed two 5508 with code 7.0.235 and 1142 access points.  All clients in that area are either Wyse  thin Win 7Devices running Citrix session or Dell W7 devices. We are having roaming problem even in L2. Coverage is great with target -67 dBm.
W7 devices connects to one AP and stay connected to it uless it drops below -80. All roaming settings in card  have been tested from Agressive to low.
In the same environment Windows XP devices and Voip phones work great without any problem.
We tested Win7 devices at several locations with variety of Cisco hardware and code versions with same results. Anybody has any idea or faced same kind of problem.
So far several NIC cards have been tested from Intel to Broadcom with up to date drivers.

Try upgrading the cards firmware also. That usually helps.

  • Windows roaming profiles and home directories - whats the difference?

    Hi,
    I realise this is probably more of a Windows oriented question, but as I'm planning to host Windows accounts on our Panther server I thought I'd ask here as well...
    A Windows account has a profile and a home directory. The profile has a 'My Documents' folder where our Windows users are used to storing their files. But there is now also a H: home directory.
    I'm confused - does this mean I should recommend my users start to use H: for storing their stuff and try not to put anything in My Documents. That's because it gets downloaded from the server at login and uploaded when they logout, right? But then what's folder redirection all about?
    (Is this a valid question in this group or should I really be asking in a Windows forum?)
    Thanks for any help.

    You'll find a lot of information here:
    http://isg.ee.ethz.ch/tools/realmen/det/skel.en.html
    I too ran into the same problem. I ended up redirecting all of the folders except Local Settings, Temp, and Temporary Internet Files. In WGM I specified the home drive map. But I didn't enter anything for the profile. Simply because if you are redirecting the user folders to the home folder that is you centralized profile.
    Also since the Netlogon share has to be made for the default user settings. You can use the Poledit utility to use policy templates for further desktop management. The poledit utility is a part of the W2K Administrative Tools package. I believe it can be found on any W2K server CD.

  • Why in Windows 8.1 do I have 2 different Profiles with identical default folders but each with totally different contents?

    I want to backup my email messages and archives. I intend to them put into my 'Documents' folder for 'Cloud' backup and also into an external hard drive which I have always used in the past and, as a 76 year old with a new computer, 8.1 in place of XP and TB instead of Outlook Express, I just feel more confident about my external hard drive! I have TB 31 and Windows 8.1. I have set my computer to show 'hidden files and folders'. In username/AppData/Local there is a TB folder with 'Profiles' and it has my XXXX.default folder - but it only has a limited number of files and folders (Cache/cache2....). In username/AppData/Roaming there is also a TB folder with 'Profiles' and it has my same XXXX.default folder - but this contains a completely different and far more extensive collection of files and folders (4 different folders plus several MAB and SQLITE files and others). Why do I have two identical default folders with different contents? Do I have to save both of them? Can someone please explain/help, preferably in words that this 76 year old might understand.

    Thanks Matt. Reassuring to this elderly user! I'll make sure I back up my Profiles xxxx.default folder from the Windows Roaming directory - but should I back up the (different!) TB contents from the TB Profiles directory in Windows Local as well?

  • AR 11.0.3 "not responding" w/ Windows redirected folders

    I recently installed Acrobat Reader 11.0.3 on some Windows 7 Enterprise x64 hosts that are members of a Windows Active Directory domain. When a domain user logs on to any of these computers, a group policy object (GPO) redirects some of the user's "roaming" folders (their Desktop, Documents, Music, etc.) to a file server located on the network. (Note that the GPO only performs folder redirection. Windows' "roaming profiles" feature IS NOT configured or being used.)
    :: PROBLEM ::
    When a domain user logs on to any of these computers and launches Acrobat Reader 11.0.3 and opens a PDF document, the application almost immediately (within a few seconds) becomes completely unresponsive and MS Windows displays a "(Not responding)" message on the application window's title bar. (NOTE: The application does not crash until a document is opened. If the user launches Reader from the Windows "Start" menu, the app is stable until a document is opened.)
    When I log on to any of these computers using a local (non-domain) user account, Acrobat Reader doesn't crash; I can use it normally for hours on end.
    Other applications installed on these hosts run normally WRT accessing the domain users' redirected folders (located on the network file server), so it doesn't seem to be a network issue, or Windows configuration issue, etc.
    I've tried "Help > Repair Adobe Reader Installation". I've tried uninstalling, deleting all residual folders and temp files, and reinstalling. I've pulled the hard drive and virus scanned it with a "known clean" system; no problems found.

    You sound like my IT guy.  The app only fails when you try to VIEW a PDF file.  The error information is as follows:

  • Roaming Profiles over NFS

    Does anyone know if it is possible to use Windows roaming profiles on an NFS share using Microsoft's Client for NFS?

    Welcome to discussions!
    On first glance, you're talking about dot tmp files. Dot anything files are hidden files in Unix, and if memory serves correct, must be specifically enabled in the smb configuration.

  • CUPC 8.6.3.20802 crashing on login on System version 8.6.2.100000-44

    Hi there,
    At my company i have a Dell Latitude E6330 laptop running version 8.6.3.20802 of the CUPC.
    The program appears to crash and auto shut down right after I appear to successfully log into it.
    We are running System version 8.6.2.100000-44.
    It does not seem to happen to other users on the same laptop model as me, we have tried to reinstall and re-image my machine as well as even clear out my Windows Roaming profile to start fresh it still crashes. It appears that when I try to log on to another Dell Desktop it will work but when I go back to my laptop it does the same thing.
    I have found a few different logs however I do not want to spam my thread with every single log that the Communicator gives me. I have tried to turn on Detailed Logging however the application crashes before it is able to be turned on.
    If you guys could please let me know where I could find some log information which I could post up and give me some assistance in troubleshooting the issue that would be great.
    Thanks heaps in advance!

  • How to add MS Office add-in from inside a Thinapp 5 virtual application to a MS Office 2013 suite that is installed on a base image

    Hi,
    We have the following solution:
    VMware Horizon View 5.3.1
    Non-persistent Linked-clone pool with delete VM after logoff
    Windows 8.1 Update 1 Enterprise 64 bit
    MS Office 2013 32-bit installed on image
    Thinapps registered for each user from logonscript with thinreg.exe command. Thinapps is located on a network share
    Native Windows roaming profiles with appdata/roaming, appdata/local without appdata/locallow(persona management does not support Windows 8.1 in View 5.3.1)
    This is our issue:
    We have a 3rd party application with a couple Thinapp entrypoints(exe files) and in the Thinapp package process we also installed Office addins. We tested that the Add-ins was opened inside Outlook, Word and Powerpoint before post installation scan.
    The problem is that the add-ins is not added to Office 2013 before or after the Thinapp is started on a test client.
    I have tried several changes in the package.ini and virtual filesystem attributes(no registry changes yet):
    Package.ini:
    ChildProcessEnvironmentExceptions=WINWORD.EXE;EXCEL.EXE;POWERPNT.EXE;OUTLOOK.EXE;
    ChildProcessEnvironmentDefault=External
    ChildProcessEnvironmentExceptions=excel.exe;outlook.exe;powerpnt.exe;winword.exe
    ChildProcessEnvironmentDefault=Virtual
    VirtualizeExternalOutOfProcessCOM=0
    DirectoryIsolationMode=Merged
    RegistryIsolationMode=Merged
    I have also read that you could make entrypoints to the locally installed Office 2013, but I get errors on the build process. ref. link: http://edwinfriesen.nl/content/?p=105#comments
    The best thing would be if the add-ins were added in the logon process together with thinreg.exe, but if that is not supported, the add-ins must be added to Office either in a custom Office shortcut/entry point or after starting the Thinapp virtual application.
    Remember that the application needs to registered every times the user logon, because we use a non-persistent View pool.
    I would really appreciate if somebody could tell me how to add Office add-ins from inside a Thinapp virtual application/package to a locally installed MS Office 2013 suite on a Windows "base" image?
    We do not want to add the whole Office suite to the Thinapp virtual package and not add the add-ins trough GPO,SCCM etc.

    What about the COM object parameters in package.ini ?
    We can live with scripting in logon or changed logon scripts etc.
    And you don't no need to lock in the project files.
    From package.ini documentation:
    ObjectTypes Parameter
    The ObjectTypes parameter specifies a list of virtual COM object types that are visible to other applications in
    the physical environment. You can use scripts, such as VBScripts, to call objects that start captured applications.
    An object type is registered to only one native or virtual application at a time. If you install Office 2003 on the
    native machine and want to use a virtual Office 2007 package, you must determine whether to have the virtual
    or native application handle the object types.
    If you want the virtual Office 2007 to handle the object types, you can leave the ObjectTypes setting in the
    Package.ini file, build the package, and register it using the thinreg.exe utility. If you want the native Office
    2003 to handle the object types, you must remove the ObjectTypes setting from the Package.ini file before
    building and registering the package.
    You cannot add random entries to the ObjectTypes parameter.
    You can only remove entries that were generated by the capture process.
    Example: Starting a Virtual Application When a COM Object is Created
    If a script or a native application creates an Excel.Application COM object or other COM objects listed in the
    ObjectTypes parameter, ThinApp starts the virtual package.
    [Microsoft Office Excel 2007.exe]
    ObjectTypes=Excel.Application;Excel.Application.12;Excel.Chart;
    Excel.Macrosheet;Excel.Sheet; Excel.Workspace

  • User Settings lost after session is released

    I am having a problem with the User settings being lost after the user logs off the system.
    menu settings, fields displayed in Marketing  Documents,  displayed User Defined fields and the

  • S-1-1-0 Error when trying to delete folders on an NCP Server

    Hello:
    There are a couple of TIDS that point to this issue.
    The TID that references Windows 7 says "reported to Engineering"
    Problem:
    On trying to delete folders on an NCP Server (does not matter if you are admin or any other user) from a WIn 7 Client you get an error message about needing permission from S-1-1-0 in order to make changes to this folder.
    Seems to have been an issue with both XP and WIn 7 at one time but may have been resolved in XP.
    S-1-1-0 is the MS SID associated with the group Everyone which prior to XPSP2 included "anonymous" users.
    I am assuming that Win 7 follows the behaviour of post XP SP2 in not recognizing "anonymous" users as being members of Everyone thus the error message.
    Does anyone have the correct technical explanation for this problem. ?
    Renaming the folders allows you to delete them which makes me suspect that renaming alters a SID somewhere.

    In our case we are using Client 2 SP2, so it looks like the "bugcat" came back.
    In fiddlying with it we have found that renaming a folder and all its sub folders that you may want to delete allows you to do so.

    There was a long standing problem with the Novell Client for Windows 7
    that wouldn't allow you to delete files which were read-only. An
    example would be some of the files located in a Windows roaming profile
    stored in a user's home directly on an OES2 server. The XP client
    would pop up a message asking if you wanted to do this, whereas on
    Windows 7 you could get the error about needing permission. Deleting
    from a command prompt worked ok.
    Fixes have gone into the latest Novell Client which should address
    this. Please make sure you are using Client 2 SP2.

  • Huge ntuser.dat.LOG1 since upgrade to Windows 8.1 prohibits roaming of user profile

    Hello,
    a few days ago my PC (part of our domain) first started to have problems with my user profile. Our domain uses roaming profiles with a size limit of 30MB. My user.dat has a size of 12.5MB. Up to now this did not cause any problems (and does not cause any for
    most users of our domain having a user.dat of similar size). However, after upgrading to Windows 8.1 I repeadly have problems with my profile exceeding its maximum size. After checking my profile, I found a ntuser.dat.LOG1 with 12,5MB in size and a ntuser.dat.LOG2
    of 2MB. As far as I know these files are used to store temporary transactions for the user.dat. But why are they this large? Together they almost completely fill the profile. As an interesting side node the last modification of ntuser.dat.LOG1 dates back more
    then seven days.
    What is further puzzling me: ntuser.dat.LOG1 and ntuser.dat.LOG2 are not synchronized with the roaming profile on the server. At least they are not on the server. However there used to be much smaller versions of these files which could have been transfered
    before the profile size exceeded its limit. Since these file seem not to be part of the roaming part of the profile, they should not count for the roaming profile size. However, they definitely do. Neglecting the registry files the largest file in my profile
    is less than 500kb and there are very few files of this size. I checked locally as well as on our server.
    Deleting the local profile and starting fresh using the roaming profile from our server does work for a day or two but then I run into the same problem. Especially, loosing all local profile data is inconvenient. I could start a new with a completely new
    profile, but I am not convinced that it is a profile issue. In our organisation my computer is one of the first to move to Windows 8.1. Since my profile worked without problems for years now, I am worried that I ran into a Windows 8.1 issue. As users normally
    start to complain about a roaming profile not synchronizing only after their local copy broke, I'd like to make sure that this is a isolated issue.
    Anyone else experiencing similar issues? Any hint on how to solve the problem?
    Regards,
    Oliver

    No, I did not find a solution. However, we moved away from roaming profiles and rely on folder redirection only. That works for us. Since we can redirect the most important folders there is no more need for roaming profiles (at least in our case).

  • How to set up roaming profile on Macs using AD like in windows

    I can bind the workstations to the domain fine.. But can someone direct me to instructions of how to set up the roaming profiles ?
    What steps do I need on the server ? This is what I've done so far.
    I already have OU's for the departments and the users have a shared folder inside their department folder.... \\server\shared_folder\user
    I have done the usual things with AD as far as the profile settings on the windows server.
    Am currently running Mac OS 10.5 and above
    My windows AD runs on windows server 2008
    All my windows workstation are able to use roaming profile without a problem.
    So far i have tried the so many avenues including..
    Make sure the Mac systems are joined to the domain controller and an ADS user can log on successfully. Use "Directory Utility" under "Utilities" menu to join the system to the domain.
    Backup all the contents from /Users to the storage or somewhere locally.
    Configure automount - Go to "Utilities" -> "Directory Utility" - Select the domain and click "Show advanced options" - Click "Mounts" tab and add automount as mentioned below. Remote NFS URL: nfs://server_name/share_name/path/to/profile/directory Mount location: /Users Additional mount parameters: -P,-T Apply the settings and this will mount the remote shared folder or we can name it as Roaming Profile Space - under /Users directory
    Enable roaming profile - Go to "Utilities" -> "Directory Utility" - Select the domain and click "Show advanced options" - Click "Services" -> Select "Active Directory" and click "Show advanced option" - Click "User experience" tab and select the option "Create mobile account at login".
    Reboot the system and log in as any ADS user. The Roaming shared folder will be mounted and the user profile will be created on the shared folder
    Can anyone kindly assist me

  • Windows Domain Controller on Windows Server 2012 R2: Hyper-V roaming profiles not loading due to slow connection

    I have racked my brain and done everything that I know to do for about two weeks now.  I am setting up a new system at our fire department and I am having the worst luck with getting the workstations to login to the domain controller with roaming
    profiles.  It keeps telling me that the roaming profile could not be loaded because of a slow connection.  These are workstations that are connected directly to the switch that the DC is connected to.  I have tried multiple connections regarding
    the layout (DC into the router, router into the switch).  The router is a Cisco RV220W.  I have two VLANS, one for public and one for private domain.  The Private VLAN has DHCP turned off since I am providing it through the DC.  I currently
    have a connection from the Private VLAN going to the unmanaged switch that the workstations and server are plugged into.
    The server is a Dell PowerEdge R420 that has 6 NIC ports (1 dual port and 1 quad port).  I have a virtual switch setup on Hyper-V for an external port (let's say Card 2 Port 3) that is assigned to the WS 2012R2 Domain Controller.  The DC can see
    the internet fine and the workstations can connect to the shared folders on the server.  I can retrieve files by just using the computer name or FQDN.  The DC is also running DNS and DHCP.  The DNS has the _msdcs setup from when I installed
    the active directory role.  I have attempted to assign static IP addresses to the workstations:
    IP:                     10.0.0.80
    Subnet:             255.255.255.0
    IPV4 Gateway:  10.0.0.1
    IPV4 DNS:        10.0.0.12
    I've attempted "append the specific DNS suffix", I've "registered the connection in DNS", I've used "use this connections suffix in DNS registration".
    The server is assigned:
    IP:                     10.0.0.12
    Subnet:             255.255.255.0
    IPV4 Gateway:  10.0.0.1
    IPV4 DNS:         10.0.0.12
    The DNS entries have forwarders that forward to my ISP DNS servers for lookup
    I've enabled and disabled DHCP, I've installed a new VM just to create another DC to make sure that I didn't goof up when I created it.
    I've lost my patience with this project and am sinking fast.  Can someone please offer some advice as to what I've done wrong?  I've created this exact scenario at work many times but, I've never done it with Windows Server 2012.  Is this
    possibly something to do with the Dell PowerEdge server (Generation 12) with the SR-IOV?  I am going to attempt to work on it some more tomorrow when I get over there.  I think there may be an issue with the SR-IOV not being enabled on the machine
    through the Dell Bios.  Would the SR-IOV really cause the workstations to report a slow connection?  When I login at the domain controller the roaming profiles and folder redirection work fine so, I know the GPO settings are correct.  I don't
    have "ignore slow connections" or any of those GPO's set.  I need to get it working the correct way so, I didn't want to fool the server when there is another underlying problem.  Any help that someone can offer, I am more than willing
    to listen.  If you need more information, please ask.
    Thanks,
    Jay

    So, I've managed to research this some more since Thursday and I've come to the conclusion that Hyper-V does a horrible job of supporting Qualcomm NIC cards. That's the only thing I can conclude as far as where the issue is originating. I've read many
    post and walkthroughs but nothing that has helped. The issue wasn't with any settings in the domain controller. The issue was that there really is a slow connection originating at the domain controller that is a VM and has network connectivity through the
    virtual switch from Hyper-V. So, next question is, how do I get the DC to have better connectivity through the NIC that Hyper-V won't give it? If hyper-v would allow passthrough, this would be so much simpler. VM-ware is looking really good at this point.
    Im disappointed in MS right now.

  • In Windows 8.1, why does Thunderbird have profiles in username\appdata\local and in username\appdata\roaming?

    I searched online to find out how to find my address book and found an article that said to look in Users\username\appdata\local\thunderbird. I did not find it there, so I did more searching and found it in Users\username\appdata\roaming\thunderbird. Do I need the Users\username\appdata\local\thunderbird directory, or is It a leftover from a previous version of Thunderbird? I would like to delete it if I don't need it.

    Background info:
    When Thunderbird program is installed it puts it here:
    * C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\
    or if using windows 64bit, it will be here:
    * C:\Program Files(x86)\Mozilla Thunderbird\
    when you run Thunderbird, it will create a default profile and this is where all your mail accounts, address books, filters, passwords etc are stored. Use for backup purposes.
    * C:\Users\Windows user name\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\Profile name\
    Windows also creates some cache folders and files, which is stored here:
    * C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Thunderbird
    These files and folders do not contain any emails etc and are not required for backup purposes.
    You can clear the cache from Thunderbird.

  • Windows Phone 8.1 Universal: VS 2013 deploys app to device but does not delete data file in roamingfolder and roaming is not activated.

    I am using VS 2013 to develop a Windows Phone 8.1 Universal app.  When I deploy to the device (my phone), the old data file that I had stored in the roamingfolder previously continues to be used.  I have uninstalled the app after being deployed,
    I put code in the app to delete the files individually from the roamingfolder and used ClearAsync(). That worked until I deployed the app again and then the old files came back.  I have not associated these apps with the store yet so roaming should
    not be working. The desktop app does not have this problem, when I uninstall it the files are deleted.
    In the phone app properties debug tab, I have the Uninstall and the reinstall my package checked for all configurations.  I have looked everywhere I can think of for these old files: laptop c:, phone tempfolder, localfolder, etc. thinking VS is reinstalling
    them from somewhere when deploying the app but I cannot find them.  If I change the phone app to use the localfolder, the old files are not used.
    Is this just the way it is if I use the roamingfolder or is there a way to delete these old files?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

    that this time interval is 30 days. Location is available via the roamingFolder property.
    >>Is this just the way it is if I use the roamingfolder or is there a way to delete these old files?
    No, you will have to wait.

  • Need help with roaming user profiles, home folder on server - symptoms after Windows reinstall on workstation

    Hello. I have deployed roaming user profiles in our home office. We are using Windows Server 2012 on our datacenter computer, which has a partition with all our home directories. All was working beautifully for quite some time.
    I re-installed Windows 8.1 Pro on my laptop. I am able to log in to my profile from the new installation.
    The problem that has started happening seems to be some sort of permission problem with my home directory, but I am not sure how to go about diagnosing it. I haven't changed anything in the policies or remote profiles.
    The symptoms:
    When I try to run an installation program from my documents/downloads/desktop (remote) folders, UAC asks for the administrative credentials as expected, and then I am asked to enter my user credentials. If I do so, I sometimes get a message about duplicate
    connections to a share, and the installation program does not execute. "Multiple connections to a server or shared resource by the same user, using more than one user name, are not allowed. Disconnect all previous connections to the server or
    shared resource and try again." I am confused, because I am entering credentials for the same user name as the one I am logged in with.
    To work around, I have to copy the executable to a folder on my workstation hard drive and run it from there.
    Another symptom is when I download anything from the internet, chrome will reflect a "Failed - Download error" message with the download. If I re-attempt the same download several times, eventually it will succeed. This appears to be due to my
    downloads folder being on the remote computer.
    I am looking for any guidance on how to remedy these symptoms. I suspect there must be a setting I have forgotten to change in the local computer, because nothing has changed on the server since it was operating properly.
    Thank you for your time.

    OK, this is a big one. The little switch on the side of the iPad, that normally allows users to lock orientation, now functions as a mute switch. This is a terrible flaw, and should be corrected.
