I followed the directions here: Here
The first two users that I created (all the users were created AFTER I did the GP Policy) the redirection worked great. The folders were created on the server and it's working. However, any user after that, regardless of the machine they log onto the first time (of if I do a gpupdate /force) I get the access denied. I've checked all the security and permissions and they match the other users. I tried to create the folders from the user account on the server and I was getting the access denied there as well. So I am completely stumped...
I read on a couple other threads of people have similar issues and it had something to do with the offline files, I went through and disabled those and it didn't fix it.
