I have a Windows 2003 SBS Active Directory domain that services my desktop, my laptop, my wife's desktop and my son's desktop. Data is stored on the server with roaming profiles and folder redirection enabled. Folder redirection is configured by group policy to route My Documents to:
\\<server>\data\userdata\<username>
This works fine for 95% of the stuff out there today (about 3-4 years ago there were a lot of things that had a problem w/ My Documents being on a network location). Nice thing about it is that all of my data is backed up from one location (the server) and when I need to rebuild my desktop, it's a simple matter of reinstalling all the software; my data and my profile/settings are already on the server. Problem with it is that every so often I run into a scenario like this where something doesn't work quite right because it's not a "standard" configuration. Well, excuse me for being a geek
