Vista - Error using mandatory roaming profile and Folder Redirection

I have setup a mandatory roaming profile for a group of users and gave them
permissions. I am redirecting the Documents, Music, Videos, Music, and
Favorites to their Home folder as specified in Group Policy. The first time
the user logs in everything works great. Any subsequent time they log the
group policy fails on Folder Redirection and stops processing any further
policy rendering the user's experience less than satisfactory. If I log in
and delete the local copy of the roaming profile and then log in as the user
it works again. The problem does return again if I log in as the user again.
Here is the error message I am receiving:

Hello,

Thank you for using newsgroup!

Based on my research, I cannot find any similar issues reported. Could you
try to re-configure roaming profile and folder redirection on the server
and then test the issue on the Vista client again?

You may use msconfig to see if the issue also happens in Clean Boot mode.

This is a common error. It deals with the the ownership of the My Documents
folder. For some reason with the new Windows 2003 Folder redirections that
were added, the My Documents has to be CREATED by the User on 1st logon so
that they own the folder. Now for me I create the My Documents folder in the
User Manager when the users are created and therefore the owner is
Administrator of the My Documents folder itself.

You can do 1 of these things.

1> Redirect based on group (which for some reason works for me and I have
2400 users redirected where all the My Documents are owned by Admin)
2> Make the user an Owner of their My Documents.
3> Under Folder Redirection - Untick the Grant Ownership check box.

That should fix it. It isn't a Vista problem as I don't run Vista clients yet.

Something to note though - Vista does NOT support Windows XP profiles. They
are not compatable.

Cheers,
Lara

I noticed you are from Microsoft Online Support (according to your sig). I
was wondering why you hadn't heard of this issue? It is pretty well
documented and has been an issue for networks since the release of Windows
2003 server Group Policies? It is not a Vista issue though but a Group
Policy issue.

I would have to spend some time doing a Microsoft KB search. I have just
been a network administrator for 20 years so it is something I have
troubleshooted on about 20 different networks since the release of Windows
2003. I am sure it is documented on a KB article somewhere or maybe I just
figured it out from trial and error.

I am still having the issue as stated before. I have not re-created the
profile nor have I "clean-booted" because I don't see how that is related at
all.

I have verified that my test user has ownership of his home folder. I have
unchecked the Grant Ownership option under folder redirection.

I have the same setup for Windows XP, but haven't had this issue before. If
I log the test account onto the computer for the first time it works. The
second time I log in to the same computer I get the Folder Redirection error
503 "access is denied." "Failed to create known folder manager."

What I might do for a workaround is to just have the group policy dump the
local profile at logoff using the setting "Delete cached copies of roaming
profiles."

I'll post as to how that works.
