We’ve been using roaming profiles for over 4 years without a problem. When we started using them we were on a Windows Server 2003 Domain functional level. Since then we have upgraded to a Windows Server 2008 Native domain functional level. We’ve had no major problems with this configuration up until about 4-5 months ago. All the sudden we are seeing multiple copies of the same profile being created and stored on the local machine to the point where they all become currupt and unusable. When you look in the Windows XP machines’ “C:\MY Documents and Setting\” you will see a normal profile named “userx” and then you will see a number of bogus profiles that look like “userx.contoso.000” “userx.contoso.001” “userx.contoso.002” etc. With in the userx profile folder there is only folders for cookies and Local Settings. All of the subsequent bogus profiles are the same except for the last one create which appears to contain the “working copy” of the users profile. Any suggestions on what might be causing this and how to correct this would greatly be appreciated.
I can get copies of the GP’s used in these cases if that would help. Please contact me for that. Thanks in advance.
