Hi All,

in my Windows 2003 active directory I've implemented roaming profiles for
the users. I want that when the users log on via terminal services, they
don't download their profile, I wish to enable roaming profiles only if they
log on locally. Is it possible?

Hi Andrea,

Make sure you configure terminalservices profiles for all users. This
profile is only used when the user connects to a terminal server. You
can enable this in the user properties in Users and Computers on the
windows 2003 machine. It is best practice to keep your profiles
seperated from your terminal services profiles.

Kind regards,

Hi,

In the Group Policy Object for your TS, enable "Only allow
local user profiles". This will prevent roaming profiles from
downloading to your TS. Normally you would have your
TS located in its own OU so that it is separate from your
other computers/servers.

The setting is located in the Group Policy Object Editor here:

Computer\Admin Templates\System\User Profiles

-TP
