Hello,
I'm currently running a small network in a WORKGROUP environment.
This network is composed of four computers (two desktop and two laptop). One desktop and the laptops run Seven, and one desktop run Windows 2008. All these three stations are setup with two disk labelled C: (SSD128Go) and D: (HDD) . Actually, i redirected some folders ( Desktop, Download, My Documents ) into the D: Drive with the utility on the properties tab on each computer.
I would like to set-up a domain with the Windows 2008 as a domain controller. I promoted it with dcpromo.
I've done some test to migrate a Windows 7 test local accounts to the corresponding domain account. This test worked but i didn't find any parameters in domain GPO to setup the local redirection (and not the windows folder redirection to a file server!). Is it possible to redirect the folders ( Desktop / My documents / Download ) on a local drive (D:) with a GPO for domain account ?
Also during my test migration from local to domain account i noticed some strange behavior when using a tool (profwiz) which i saw on this forum. Issue was like if a local admin account was migrated to the domain account corresponding, the new domain account
will have administrator rights on the station .... and the old profile was used instead of the new profile under C:\Users\.
The second issue is if my DC breaks, how could i do to have exactly the same session when logging offline (with a local account ?) ?
Thanks in advance for your feedback,
