Redirecting the My Music Folder

Hello,

I am redirecting users My Documents folder to a remote share. One problem is that I dont want to redirect the My Music folder found within the My Documents folder. How can I do this? I want My Documents to be on a remote share while the My Music folder is local such that Windows Media Player, ITunes, RealPlayer, and Quicktime will default to this local My Music folder.

Thanks!

you have to set this as a local variable within the applications themselves, i believbes in media pkayer you go into the library configuration, however if the users go to save anything they are going to go to my dodcuments and open up the my music folder so this may not be your best approach

I am redirecting my music folder to a local folder.  I used a adm template to redirect it to a %userprofile%\my music.  But I still have a folder on on my network share - home folder named my music.  How can I get rid of that or make that folder redirect to the local one.  I have over 5000 users and I just want to get rid of the my music folder in there home folder on the network share.
