Hi all,

I've configured a shared folder in the usual way in order to use TS Profiles
on my 2008 TS Farm. The profiles are getting created on my server just fine
(they are appearing as [username.v2] )

However, I am unable to access these profiles using the administrator
account (access denied). I have configured the permissions as per a 2003 TS
implementation that works perfectly. Can anyone advice?

Many thanks,
Mike

I don't know whether 2008 works differently here as I don't use it
yet....but in Group Policy there should be an option to add the
Administrators group to roaming user profiles. You might add that to your
GPO for the TS servers...it won't retroactively correct the existing profile
folders but should apply to any new ones you create. Try and se.
 
Re: TS Profiles

Hi there,
yeah I tried this and still no joy. I added the setting in the OU for users
and the dedicated OU for the Terminal Servers...... Arghhhhhhhhhhh - this is
soooo annoying.

Just to confirm, this is in Computer Configuration\Administrative
Templates\System\ User Profiles - so you'd put it in a (the) policy that is
linked to the TS OU. And you've also got a TS profile path setting in
there, right?

If you run rsop.msc does it show up?

You tested this with a brand new user?

I really have no experience with 2008 - but this works with 2003.

Re: TS Profiles

I had to reboot the Terminal Servers (Computer config). I guess I could've
forced the policy through but its working anyway,.

Thanks very much!

Most welcome - glad it's working.
Gpupdate /force should work...
