Configuring the Default Roaming Profile for all MysaNiTy User Accounts using Windows 2000 Pro Workstations.Roaming Profiles and MysaNiTy
After completing the ntwksta.exe configuration you will need to configure a Default Roaming Profile that all MysaNiTy user accounts will use. This will allow all MysaNiTy user accounts the full benefits of MysaNiTy’s security and desktop management. The following profile can be created on either NT workstation 4.0/2000 Professional and run on either. Logon as Domain Administrator on 2000 Pro Workstation, run all programs that all users will user and set and tool bars, desktop preferences, etc. the way you want them to appear for all users the first time a user logs in and runs that program. If using Outlook Express run it also 1. Start->Run -> regedt32.exe and select: HKEY_CURRENT_USER 2. Highlight root key HKEY_CURRENT_USER 3. Select Security (menu) -> Permissions-> Add -> Global Group Domain Users
4. Select Domain Users and Click Add
6. Click the Advanced Button below the permissions window and check the box “Reset permissions on all child objects and enable propagation of inheritable permissions” and Click OK (this adds the Domain User permissions to all subkeys so that the logon desktop and security settings script will be able to write to the appropriate subkeys)
7. Click YES to the security message -> Click OK to close the permission windows 8. Close the Registry Editor Windows.
Copying administrator profile to the server for
use as a Default Roaming Profile.(ntuser.dat) 9. Right click My Computer . Then Choose Properties->
User Profiles 10. Select Domain/administrator profile ( DO NOT Use local/administrator). 10.
Select Copy to. Copy profile to:
\\servername\aeprofile\profile.man
. 11. Select Permitted to Use -> Change. Add the group DOMAIN/Users or Everyone if Domain Users not available
Click
OK. The local profile will now
be copied to the server. 12. Complete this step before generating any MysaNiTy accounts that
will use roaming profiles on a Windows NT/2000 Pro Workstation(R). If you
already have or have just added the first Windows 2000 Pro/XP Workstation(R) you can
later update all accounts with the new Default Roaming Profile outlined below. a)
On your server go to the c:\mysaNiTy\aeprofile\profile.man folder. b)
You should see the file ntuser.dat in this folder See example c:\mysaNiTy\aeprofile\profile.man\ntuser.dat *** All newly generated MysaNiTy accounts will now get a copy the
Default User Profile (ntuser.dat) from C:\mysaNiTy\aeprofile\profile.man.
All user accounts generated will have ntuser.dat is copied to the
users ntprofile subfolder of the users home folder on the server. All
MysaNiTy accounts have a profile path statement that point to the users ntuser.dat
file in the users ntprofile subfolder of their home directory. *****
