Dear All

We use one mandatory profile for all of our students. We also have 2 DC
running windows 2003 r2. I was looking to place and share this mandatory
profile within the netlogon share so that the path in the users profiles
would be

\\%logonserver%\%netlogon%\Profile\Profile.man

Would this be possible and a good idea for redundancy

I don't see why it wouldn't work but not sure why you need to go to this
level for the profile. Do you have multiple sites that need to get this
replicated or are you just using this for redundency?

If for redundency, just use backup control. If because you have remote
sites and want to use a single unc for all users then it seems like a
worthwhile idea.
