Hi,

I'm not sure if if this is the right forum but here goes. I have a problem
in that I have a load of Word documents with attached templates that are on a
now defunct server. The problem is that Word now hangs for a long time
looking for its template on non-existent server(it has been moved to a new
server). Further investigation showed that this location is hardcoded in the
Word document. A guy called Terry Farrell on the Word discussion group said
that the only solution is to use the Windows Server Redirect command to
redirect any requests for templates on the dead server to the new location.
Can anyone tell me how to do this? Also, where would any code go? in a login
script?

Any help would be much appreciated as this is causing a real problem for my
users,
Thanks,
Chris
 
Re: Redirecting users

Try re-directing the templates through the AD group policy. There may
be some setting for re-directing the user and workgroup template.
