WIndows Profiles How to setup

I have setup a VMware view network and I have Novell Client and Zen Agent working just fine. But I would like to have the users save only to the home directory. Roaming profiles would be ok, but I don't want the desktop to sync (copy) with their network drive. I have used Roaming Profiles once with horid results. (When you have a instructor with 100 gb of items on their desktop they cant understand why it takes so long to login. And you cant stop them from doing it.).
I simply want the documents and subfolders to save to their networked home directory.
Thanks
dave.

Enable Folder Redirection via a GPO or perhaps in your Default Profile.
Point your various user doc folders to H: by Default.

  • Illustrator CC how to setup custom document profile

    How do I set up a custom document profile in Illustrator CC and save it for future use?
    I do not see any way to save it.

    I think you have to create a new document, set all your preferred options, leave it empty, and save it as a template file, ready to reuse .
    Otherwise you can:
    Create a new document, set all your preferred options, leave it empty, and save it in the same folder of the adobe preset.
    To find the correct path select the preset profile menu, in the new document window, and choose browse.

  • How to use the same Windows-Profile for over 700 Users?

    Dear admins,
    i´d like to use one (1!) shared windows profile to serv over 700 user-accounts in our school. But there is a little complication in the WGM.
    I just tried to check all users and entered the path of the shared profile right in the windows tab.
    For example \\Server\Profiles\oneforallprofile
    Unfortunately the WGM put the user´s shortname behind this path.
    For example: \\Server\Profiles\oneforallprofile\mistersmith
    or \\Server\Profiles\oneforallprofile\sallymiller and so on.
    By changing this preference one by one it works, but of course i need a solution to do that for all users.
    Does anyone know how to set one Profile for all students?
    Thanks for your help!

    Hello Prasad,
    Most likely the user km_admin still has system principal roles assigned, even though you removed the Super Admin role, you should check that this user doesn't have any other admin roles, otherwise it will be considered a System Principal user and will therefore still have access to all content. For more information see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/19/56f28fbd4e11d5993b00508b6b8b11/frameset.htm
    Try creating a new user with just read access to the content and you should see that it will not be able to make any changes etc.

  • How to setup the windows installed pxi to RT target

    how to setup the windows installed pxi to RT target?

    Ranjith,
    I think the answer for your 1st que is NO. In the sense, you can run the code, but it may not work precisely as it is supposed to...
    A target can be said to be an RT, if & only if it has an RTOS installed in it, not just Windows, which is not a real-time OS.
    Youcan run the existing code in Windows, but as I said earlier, it may not give you the actual results.
    Finally, hereafter, pl dont use the term 'box' for a PXI. It is a chassis with a main module that runs on Windows or an embedded RT processor/conrtoller that runs on an RTOS like VxWorks or Phsr Lap.
    Hope this helps you to some extent...

    How to setup the airport extreme for window xp

    Sorry, I forgot to mention a few points:
    1) I don't have the Airport Extreme base station;
    2) My PowerBook is connect to the internet thru wired connection with the Built-in Ethernet;
    3) The Airport is turned on, but my PSP's scan cannot locate the PowerBook at all (while it find someone else's network)
    So, I wonder if I can just connect my PSP to the built-in Airport in the PowerBook directly. So that I can have internet access on my PSP.

  • How to setup 9ias so that we can have different profile to cater for 2 DADs

    Dear Sir,
    How to setup 9ias so that we can have different profile to cater for 2 DADs with the same name pointing to different database.
    For example:
    /pls/users --> pointing to database 1
    /pls/users --> pointing to database 2
    I would like to know, how possible is it.
    Reason being we would like to deploy both our live and demo plsql application on same application server without the need to change all the dad path to:
    /pls/users -- pointing to database 1
    /pls/usersdb2 -- pointing to database 2
    In other words, we would like to preserve the same DAD name in both live and demo application to minimise unnecessary changes to application.
    Please advise.
    Thanks.

    Do this and try running start.bat again. It should get past this error.

  • How to setup user's rights to modify Windows Firewall Rules?

    I would like to have an account in my system that doesn't have any other administrative privileges besides rights to modify the Windows Firewall rules by means of Firewall API. How to setup a minimal set of rights for this account to do the task?
    Right now what I see is that if I try to call INetFwRule::put_RemoteAddresses from an account without administrative privileges, the call fails with access denied. There is no means to find out access to what is needed. The call fails even if the process
    is run under high integrity level.
    I tried to setup global security audit, but there were no relevant events logged.
    I tried to monitor the process with procmon, there were no any access denied events logged.
    I tried to give the full access for this account to the correspondent registry keys. It didn't help.
    I stepped firewallapi.dll in a debugger and found out that what fails is an RPC call to some COM interface proxy. I assumed that probably it is a remote call to some HNetCfg.FwRule method. I tried to add the user account to the HNetCfg.FwRule launch and
    access permission ACLs in the DCOM configuration utility. It didn't help either.
    Dear Microsoft, why did you do such a simple thing as settings user rights so difficult? Can you reveal the secret what rights and privileges I have to set?
    Thanks in advance.
    Dei nostra Matrix est.

    Here is what I found so far.
    The firewall service calls RpcServerRegisterAuthInfo to setup RPC security from FwRpcAPIsRegisterAuthInfo. It happens during registration of RPC interfaces in FwRpcAPIsInterfaceCreate. FwRpcAPIsInterfaceCreate is called from FwRpcAPIsInitialize. And FwRpcAPIsInitialize
    is used from FwServiceAsyncStartupRoutine.
    After calling FwRpcAPIsRegisterAuthInfo function FwRpcAPIsInterfaceCreate calls ConvertStringSecurityDescriptorToSecurityDescriptor, which converts a textual description of a security descriptor to some binary form.
    So my guess is that access rights are hard coded inside mpssvc.dll and what I have to do is just to find the textual representation of the correspondent descriptor.
    I found 8 descriptors inside mpssvc.dll:
    O:SYG:SYD:(A;;RCWD;;;BA)(A;;RCWD;;;NO)
    O:SYG:SYD:(A;;RCWD;;;S-1-5-80-2940520708-3855866260-481812779-327648279-1710889582)(A;;RCWD;;;S-1-5-80-3526382388-830156861-4107432654-3665941875-1028450966)

  • How to setup ftp with dreamweaver and windows server 2003

    Does anyone know if there is a tutorial/article on settinp up Dreamweaver cs3 to use Windows server 2003 as an FTP server...
    any assistance would be greatly appreciated...

    I was able to figure out how to setup the ftp connection, connect to my home server, however,whenever i tried to upload the contents of my website to my server, nothing gets uploaded to the site. I tried putting one page at a time, nothing. tried everything, and still no joy. I can see everything on my local server which is a XAMP package, but nothing on my remote server. Do i maybe need to maybe have a WAMP or XAMP on the Windows Server 2003 or that should not matter. This is new to me so i am learning as i go along.
    Another thing, i was able to create a subfolder in my c:\www.ftproot folder, i can see that folder on my local machine, i'm just not seeing the files in that folder when i do my 'put' with my files.

  • Windows Profile corrupt how to transfer ITUNES to new profile

    My windows profile was corrupted and when I connect from the new profile it wants to wipe my iphone.
    Windows XP Pro
    Iphone 3GS 16g
    There is nothing in the ITUNES other than my iphone. Everything is ON my IPHONE but instead of syncing IPHONE to ITUNES, it wants to sync ITUNES to IPHONE(wiping my iphone).
    SO I need to either recover my ITUNES from old profile or sync IPHONE to ITUNES

    Hi, welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Move the folder *C:\Documents and Settings\<Old Profile>\My Music\iTunes* to the root of the C: drive so it becomes C:iTunes.
    Click on the icon to launch iTunes and immediately press and hold down SHIFT until asked to create or choose a library. Choose the library at C:\iTunes.
    iTunes will recognise that the old library is the one connected to the iPhone.

  • How to setup a forms function in R12 to launch an URL?

    Hi All,
    In 11i we could create a forms function of the type "SSWA plsql function" to launch a html page from the menu.
    How is that supposed to work in R12?
    So my question is, how to setup a forms function to launch an URL like www.oracle.com in R12?
    thanks,
    thierry

    Hi, first set the Profile 'Restricted Text Input' to 'No' for your User.
    Then create a form function like below:
    Functional Administrator > Core Services > Function > Create (button)
    Name: XX_GOOGLE
    Code: XX_GOOGLE
    Type: SSWA jsp function
    Maintenance Mode Support : none
    Context Dependance: Responsibility
    (press continue button)
    HTML Call: javascript:void window.open("http://www.google.com")
    Leave other fields blank
    Add to HR_EMPLOYEE_DIRECT_ACCESS_V4.0 menu:
    500 XX Google XX_GOOGLE
    This will pop up your external webpage in a new window.
    The issue is that it only works from the Navigator framework page (not from within Core Forms)

    Hi,
    According to your comment, I can say that Share permissions are automatically set up by the management tools once it will be created. We can use windows PowerShell or server manager to manage UPD. Also remember that User profile disks are for a single collection
    only. A user connecting to two different collections will have two separate profiles.
    Here providing important link to understand UPD. (You can refer below link for Server 2012 R2)
    1.  Easier User Data Management with User Profile Disks in Windows Server 2012
    2.  Working with User Profile Disks on Session-Based Desktop Deployments
    Hope it helps!
    Thanks.
