Home Directory

This article is part of Helge’s Profile Toolkit, a set of posts explaining the knowledge and tools required to tame Windows user profiles. The easiest way to assign user profile and home directories is via group policy. But that can only be done per computer. There is no (simple) way to point different users’ directories to different file servers. So what? No problem at all, until the number of users is too large for a single file server to handle. This article discusses what can be done to spread the user load.
