What a total ass you are Schestowitz. It's difficult to believe that you are any kind of scientist because your level of proof of your conclusions and your reasoning in general is just so pathetic.

I am just setting up a new windows 2008 domain with vista clients. Just doing a bit of work getting the roamin profiles up and running. I have redirected all of the folders to the network shares: \\servername\home$\ and they seem to be running ok. The problem I am having it that when the user logs in a folder is on the desktop with their username on. So when bob smith logs in there is a folder called bob smith. All of the folders inside this seem to be redirecting to the network drives ok. How can i go about disabling this from the desktop? I have had a look in the group policy but i cannot see what it is called. I have found the option in the group p…

Ok my default selected power plan is balanced and for some reason it keep changing to high performance my guess would be either when i shut down the computer or when i log on/log off. I have this issue for so long now and it's really getting annoying specially when it has to do with energy. I join the customer experience since i got Windows Vista hopefully someone is checking this issues. Is anyone having the same problem that I'm experiencing right now?

Although only an annoyance, when users print on my network I get an error event ID 560 in the Security log. I audit for print success/Failure and failure to delete print jobs using the 'everyone' group. Can someone shed some light on this and what I can do to get rid of these events. The users all are allowed to print to these printers, and I get the usual print event in the system log.
