Windows 7 Pro – Server 2008 Romain/Local Profiles

by lewismsmith . Updated 13 years, 12 months ago

Im looking to deploy Windows 7 Pro on around 20-25 computers (most laptops – but several desktops). These will then be connected to our main server. Im looking to use ‘roaming’ profiles, and store everything on a central server, however staff take laptops home to use. The problem I have is staff not being able to have access to the files from home, we have no plans to use VPN, so it would be ideal if profiles remained local, then every now and then copied to the server, for backups etc? Or the second option I thought of would be to leave profiles local, with re-directions in place for folders e.g documents, pictures, then allowing staff to copy files to a memory stick when needed.

What would you reccomend?
