We have over 450 computers that are used by the public in various offices. We decided that all of these PC's need to look the same so were trying to use a roaming profile. When these computers are logged in for public use they get certain group policy, and one of the things were trying to do is to keep users from up loading to the roaming profile upon log off. I used the setting under computer configuration that says "don't allow profile to propagate to the server" but the profile keeps getting bigger and this is big trouble for our far away locations with little bandwidth. Were trying to come up with a GPO solution that allows us to have roaming profiles (so we can update them almost instantly) and have them not creep up in size? Do I need to apply two separate GPO's, one to the users and one to the PC's? Any feedback or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks ps Using mandatory profiles gives us a User Environment Error upon log off and still seems to creep up in size? Chad
