I am trying to setup mandatory profiles for Windows 7 so I can swap out some XP computers with Win 7
They have been using XP mandatory profiles for years.
I created 2 new test users and pointed them to the Mandatory profile
\\server\users\public\mandatory
The folder is \\server\users\public\mandatory.v2
Whenever I try to login as one of the users I either get a temporary profile or "the user profile service failed the logon"
I have tried several different methods to create the mandatory profile on the server.
I have domain user named "Mandatory" that I pointed to that path. I logged in, configured the profile, logged out, went to another computer logged in as mandatory and that works.
Other users won't pull the profile. I changed the permissions so domain users and read and write access. I have tried it with full permissions too.
I have created a profile using the mandatory user pointed to a different location and copied it over.
I have copied local computer profiles onto the server.
I even went and loaded the ntuser.dat hive into regedit and edited permissions so authenticated users have access to it.
I copied the mandatory profile and into C:\users and renamed it C:\users\default (which is what I have done with local profiles for years with no issues)
Then I right clicked my computer, went to properties -> advanced -> users, and used the "copy to" option granting permissions to authenticated users to copy the default profile to the server.
None of these solutions work.
What is going on?
