One of the great things about Windows group policies is the ability to redirect each workstations’ My Documents folder to a network share so that the contents can be backed up from a network server. I have done this with my LAN, but I have a new problem and I’m wondering what others might have done in a similar situation.
After redirecting the My Documents folder, I discovered that the My Music, My Pictures and other My folders are also redirected to the server. This poses a problem as my file server is now filling up with hundreds of MP3 and JPG files. This causes backup nightmares as well.
So, how have you dealt with this problem on your network?
