Hello everyone,
I'm somewhat new to the Server 2008 front, and I'm afraid I've hit my first snag:
I've set up roaming profiles, and they appear to be working too well.
Is there a way to limit, ideally on a folder/object basis, what gets synced with a roaming profile?
What I'm trying to do is:
1) stop my roaming profile from syncing desktop layout - I run a dual-screen desktop and a laptop, and it's really annoying to have to reposition everything after logging onto the laptop, because it forces everything onto one screen.
2) stop it from syncing registry variables - specifically, I want Visual Studio to load different setting files on each computer. Currently, the variable that contains that path is getting synced whenever I log in, so I get the settings from whatever box I last logged out from.
3) stop syncing the start menu - this one's not as big, but I'm noticing 'program not found' icons even for programs that are installed. they work when I click them - they just look ugly.
I'm running Windows SBS 2008 x64 with two Win7 clients (x86 Pro, and X64 Ultimate).
Is there a simple way to do that? Or am I trying to work too much against what roaming profiles are designed for?
I could, of course, set up different profiles for the desktop and laptop, but that seems to defeat the point of roaming profiles entirely...
Thanks in advance!
Any help will be much appreciated =)
