Hello all,

please, can you give me an advice on following?

I'm trying to establish domain and I do not know how to deal with notebooks.
We have several notebook users which sometimes are in office and sometimes
they are out. If they are in the office they should log into domain. But I
found that their profile changes depending on if user is logged in domain or
logged locally. I need user to have still the same profile (one user profile
folder) with the same desktop icons, documents folder, settings ... not
depending if user is logged into domain or locally. How can I achieve this?

Thank you for your help a lot! Vojta

By default, unless changed manually, the clients will cache the domain
account and password for local logon in the event a domain controller
cannot be contacted. Have them choose the domain and their domain
account when away from the office.

I have recently run into this issue myself and after HOURS of
troubleshooting, I have figured out a way to use a single profile for
multiple users. I am still testing this to get the "bugs" worked out, but if
you would like instructions, leave your email, and I'll send them... FYI, it
is undoubtedly a complex procedure which includes modification of registry
settings.
