Check your event logs on the client and the server.

It's not working for any users.....I have them redirected to a folder on my server called Users.....In AD under user properties...on the profile tab....I have home directories enabled and I have a path set.
ASKER
the path is \\dc2\users\username
Check the system event logs on the client PCs. This will tell you what errors are occuring during login.
qtstek, when you enter the path in AD it must be:
\\dc2\users\%username%
Do the folders all exist and the users have the correct rights?
\\dc2\users\%username%
Do the folders all exist and the users have the correct rights?

I checked the event viewer and this is the error that I got:

The folder is configured to be redirected to <\\%HOMESHARE%%HOMEPATH%>. Files were being moved from <C:\Documents and Settings\ibutler\My Documents> to <\\DC2\USERS\ibutler>.
