Roaming Profile with Limited Storage

[Sid]

Hi all,

Thakns to all of you for your previous sugessions.

I am having a Windows Domain Enviroment at my workplace:-

D.C.(1) - Win 2003 Server Enterprise Edition

File Server (1)- Win 2003 Server Standard Edition

Clients (50):- Windows XP Prof. with SP 2

I want to create roaming profile for all the 50 users so that hey can login to any system and can get their file right on that pc. I want to apply some restrictions so that all the users can use max 100 MB disk space only.

Is there any way to do so, if Yes please guide me how to do the same.

I have successfully implimented the roaming profile but only want to restrict them for a limited disk storage.

i think there is using group policy,,, or on every PC click start > run and type in gpedit.msc and take a look at the options in there

Hi,

To Limit profile disk size for roaming users, you will need to follow these steps:

With your AD setup, default 'Users' folder in AD will contain Roaming and local Users.

For Example, You will need to create a new OU and call it "Roaming Users" and give 'Roaming Users' it's own group policy, then drag and drop the roaming users into this OU.

Now you will be able to apply profile space limits only to the roaming users group policy.

You can set the "Limit Profile Size" in the Roaming users group policy only.

So then the "Roaming Users" would inherit the default domain policy as well as the added settings in the roaming users group policy applied.
