The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Log domain users onto thin client without roaming profile being downloaded

Asked by jcmurphy777 in Active Directory, Windows XP Operating System

Tags: Microsoft, Windows, XP

We are running XPE thin Clients with WIN XP embedded....(cut down version of XP) at our school which connect through to a Blade Server, and  are wanting to add the 25 thin clients to the domain and have users log in with their username and password as they normally would but have it ONLY do authentification.

we dont want the users profile being downloaded onto the machines.
we want the local profile that is embedded into windows to be used.... thus saving space on the limited 500mb of flash memory it boots on. At the moment the machine is off the network and the machine auto logs in, then if the user wants to do anything they must log authenticate several times etc

is this possible.

the reason we want to do this is so that the thin clients can be used on the domain for accessing the internet, library lookup software and the user can save things from the internet to their network share.

If they want to access everything else on the domain they log into a Blade PC which has everything installed. Just our way of having the Blades free as much as possible.

any ideas?


Just ask if this is too confusing
