Folder redirection & Mapping Drives

by todd . Updated 17 years, 7 months ago

Okay, new DC is up and able to log in to Server2003 no problems, even VPN works. I have a couple of questions…

1. When redirecting the Application data, that is just the App Data folder that contains templates, sig files and such, correct? It doesn’t back up the App Data folder that is in the Local Settings (such as .pst files) does it? I’m trying to figure out if there is any way to get Outlook email and contacts accessible from another computer or VPN without having an Exchange Server. I know I can move the .pst files anywhere I want, but I’m afraid what may happen when a user starts to access it from 2 different computers.

2. Is there a way to map shared folders to users without manually mapping each one? Such as with GP? So I can assign certain groups the needed shares, and users can locate them easily from My Computer.

Thanks. TC
