We're having a lot of corrupted profiles lately on our profile share. At the moment I have no clue why, but I decided to switch to one mandatory profile since the users can all use the same and there is no need to have seperate profiles for each user.
Here's what I did. I logged into the Terminal server with a new user and configured some stuff (imported certificates and a few files). Then I logged out. Later as admin I copied the profile to another server and renamed it to bsilo. I made sure the user hive settings were adjusted. Everyone had access to the hive. I shared the bsilo folder with full access for everyone. I set the NTFS permissions to read, read & execute, list folder contents for domain users. I also renamed NTUSER.DAT to NTUSER.MAN.
Now I set a env variable %manprofile% on the Terminal server that points to \server\bsilo\ntuser.man
I set the env var as terminal services profile path for a test user. When I log in I as the user get the following output
The system cannot find the path specified. Can somebody point me in the right direction. Thanks
