Hi guys,<br />
<br />
Im setting up a Terminal Server 2003 for around 15 domain users.<br />
Im concerned about home directories.<br />
When a domain user logs on to a terminal server, does their normal windows (non terminal server) ad user home directory get downloaded to the terminal server, along with their profile, or do terminal servers have their own home directory and profile? Currently, for ad users, we have the my documents folder redirected to a file and print server for users.<br />
Im getting a bit confused on how terminal server user home directories and profiles interact with ad user home directories and profiles.<br />
Any help in clearing this up for me would be appreciated.<br />
<br />
Thank you<br />
<br />
Simon

Terminal Server 2003 User Home Directories and AD User Home Directories

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
