Both point to the same folder

All other GP settings seem to have propergated and when I turned off
the "Copy from old location to new location.." option in the folder
redirection, logon where cut down significantly. This is strange,
since the policy option has been in place for a few months now, and
the XP machines did take a while the first time after implementing it
but vista tries to copy it each time?
