Romaing Profile help with Windows XP Pro hosts and 2k3 Server

Hi, I want to get everyone using roaming profiles and I just need alittle help to get over the edge. I ahve set up a test account first off. I created the account locally. Then logged in to the computer as an admin, then copied the test users profile to a folder on the network share. I went to active directory and put in the profiles address. I can logon to every computer on the network fine but my desktop icons are never the same on each computer. I made a test word document and put it in my documents which I will be doing folder redirection soon. But anyways that file is available when I logon to each computer. Also some of the accounts profiles already on the hosts do not give me the option to "copy to" another location. I ahve read a bunch of posts and other questions and have spent a lot of time on this. Thanks

I figured out the desktop icons problem. On each host there was icons in the all users folder in documents and setting on the local c drive. So I just deleted those icons and now when I logon anywheres my screen looks the same. Thanks for the help.
