We have 6 PCs that are of various flavors of Windows. They were all separate
and independent workstation. Recently, we purchased Small Business Server
2003 and created network accounts for our users. Now, when they login they
have two profiles listed under Users (Vista PC, for example). However, their
new network acct does not have all the desktop and functionality that they
had with their local profiles. I know I can probably just copy the various
folders from their local to their network profile but I understand there is a
better way. What is that better way? I hear it is available in Small
Business Server 2003. It's a pain to copy those folders then recreate their
Outlook (Pop/SMTP) accounts all over again.
