Anyone else using Folder Redirection?

[Spooter]

Hi all,

I am trying to get folder redirection working for My Documents using Group Policy but get the below error message in the log file.

Any ideas?

The new directed folder gets created but nothing gets copied over and the My Document Folder doesnt point to the redirected folder.

I have tried a new profile and resetting the system permissions and a completely different machine. I able to get this working for a number of other users though!

It also appears to create these strange files in the redirect location?

Error 5 is access denied, check permissions, make sure the target folder isn't inheriting any permissions that would screw it ip

It's most likely the share permissions and not NTFS..

You get this when the user doesn't have full control granted on the share permissions. Either give Everyone Full Control or grant FC to the users by way of a group.

The My Documents folder doesn't get redirected because of the error.

Agree that this is likely a permissions issue, either with permissions on the source files or destination.

To rule out issue with source file, if you move that default.rdp file out of My Documents, does the My Documents redirection work? (or likely does it now complain about some other file in My Documents?)
