Home Directories

Windows 2008 Terminal Server Home Directories (Local Profiles)

Windows 2008 Terminal Services creates local directories (on the Terminal Server) for each client in C:\Users\ (default). In most cases, you will use these default Home directories when storing P6 Professional user specific files under the manually created Windows Folder.

For example, C:\Users\Default User\Windows\PM.INI

You can also configure each Terminal Services user to use a different location for the Home directory – either on the Local Terminal Server or on shared network drive. Do this under:

Local Group Policy Editor /Computer Configuration/Administrative Templates/Windows Components/Terminal Services/Terminal Server/Profiles

Each local account on the Windows 2008 Terminal Server could have a common letter drive mapped to their own unique folder.

Windows Domain Accounts Home Directories (Roaming Profiles)

Terminal Server/Citrix ICA clients can connect to the Terminal Server/Citrix server using a domain account. For Windows 2008 Active Directory domains, home directories can be configured at the Active Directory Data Store/Global Catalog using the "Active Directory Users and Computers" console.

The domain account's profile can be configured to map a letter drive to a network share and folder upon login. The same result can be accomplished using login scripts for each domain user. The common letter drive should be applied for all users to map to a unique folder for each domain account. For example:

For more information on assigning letter drives via user profiles or login scripts please refer to Microsoft documentation for Windows 2008 Server at http://www.microsoft.com/.
