Are you asking about roaming profiles? Configuring Roaming User Profiles http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc738596(WS.10).aspx http://blogs.msdn.com/b/oldnewthing/archive/2005/06/30/434209.aspx Regards, Dave Patrick .... Microsoft Certified Professional Microsoft MVP [Windows]

Thanks Mr.Dave , I have tried this option i got some error in the log-on time like "Windows cannot update your roaming profile. Possible causes of this error include network problems or insufficient security rights. If this problem persists, contact your network administrator." Deleted local profile but still got the same error message. Also deleted server profile but still getting the same message. Pls help me boss

The message means just what it says. Check the permissions on the on the profiles file. They must allow the user to write to the file to update the profile.Bill

Thanks boss , Where can i check boss Server or client pls tell me boss Regards Subash

Hi, Possible reasons why Windows cannot update you roaming profile include: a network connectivity problem, a file copy error (Userenv Event ID 1509), an application fails to release file handles on the roaming user profile files on the server, or incorrect permissions on the user's profile folders. I suggest you first check Event Viewer logs on the client. 1. Review the Event Viewer logs and look for related profile (Userenv) events to obtain additional details about this error. 2. In Event Viewer, click System, and look for any networking-related messages, such as Netlogon messages, that indicate a network connectivity issue. 3. Ensure that the correct permissions are set on the user's roaming profile folders that are stored on the server.
