We're not using DFS or backup exec.<br />
<br />
These have only returned once and I have deleted the whole profile, so fingers crossed it won't happen again.

We have an SBS 2003 with users having roaming profiles. Their profiles are stored on a drive on the server. This works just fine.<br />
<br />
One user found it took an age to log on. When we looked at his profile, it had lots of videos and was 70GB in size.<br />
<br />
He didn't need/want the videos so we deleted them and he was able to log on as normal.<br />
<br />
This worked for a few weeks and the same thing happened again - the videos which we had deleted had come back... we have deleted them again but why do they keep coming back?

Small Business Server (SBS) is a line of server operating systems targeted at small businesses by bundling the operating system with a number of other Microsoft products that would normally need to be purchased or licensed separately. The most notable inclusions are Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint and ISA/TMG (Microsoft's firewall and proxy server).
