Vista - Roaming Profiles

Roaming Profiles

1. I have a local domain running on a pair of Enterprise 2003 Servers.
2.. I use Roaming Profiles normally fairly successfully with the XP SP2
boxes in the network.
3. I have yet to get them to work with any release of Windows Vista. Vista
always tells me that it can't load the profile and is going to use the local
ones.

Suggestions please on what to look for. The event log on the Vista box is
not particularly interesting as near as I can tell.

Yet another reason why Vista isn't ready for prime time.

NOTE TO MS LURKERS: If the problem is my fault, in the sense that I need to
do something to my domain then it would have been really slick if the
message that was display said something like "You can't use your roaming
profile, giving you a local one. Have your IT jocks read KB article
#123457890."

Al Christoph

Re: Roaming Profiles

Try this:

The command to disable the autotuninglevel is:

- Click start, All Programs
- Accessories
- Right-click Command Prompt
- Click Run As Administrator
- Type the following: netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled
- Press enter
- Restart your computer (not really necessary)

In fact for my Profile problem was that Windows was in slow bandwidth and of
course as the old Windows, by default it not download the profile but just
create a temp folder.
