Single Mandatory Profile for Multiple Users Not Working on Windows 7
I would like to have several users running of the same mandatory profile. i created a roaming profile called template and copied it within the same folder renaming to templateman. i then renamed the ntuser.dat within to ntuser.man and set the path in the users AD properties but the only account that can log on with this mandatory profile is the user that originally made the roaming profile template. (hope that makes sense please ask if you need clarification.) other users get temporary profiles. This only affects Windows 7 logons. the same procedure works in windows XP.
I have set a GPO to stop users logging on with a temporary profile. the policy also deletes cached copies of roaming profiles. the logon error i get is: "The Group Policy Client service failed the logon. Access is denied." so looking like a permissions issue. help much appreciated with this one.

Have you checked on the permissions of the profile folder that all the relevant users (or a group they're in has full control of that folder)? And if you've moved any files into that folder, the permissions on those file(s) will need to be reset to inherit from the parent.

yes i have put all the users that will use this profile in to a group and added them to the profile folder with full control for this folder, subfolders and files.
