SBS 2003 user dosuments issue

Mark M · 30 Jun 2008 at 15:28

Hi

I think its an issue with SBS2003. One user has an issue that when she goes to access her "my docs" it attempts to acces another users docs and brings up the error messafe - access to user2 docs is not accessible.

If you right click on my docs and go to properties the path is to user2 docs and not user1!

Ive had a look on the profile of the user on the server but cant see anything that would suggest the docs for user1 and pointing to user2? But then again I dont really have much of a clue!!

Thanks for any help

Hi
Try running the document redirection wizard again and see if that sorts it.

Hi Rob, thanks for the reply.

Ive never heard of the document redirection wizard? How do I access it?

couple of places - in server management under users, and also under backup, just to name a few. it's called the mydocuments redirection wizard iirc.

Ok, if your trying to set up SBS 2003 and not using the wizards, your gonna give yourself a head Ache!

From the Server Management screen, go to USERS, on the left hand side is a link call Configure Users folder redirection. Just OK that, then when the users log on, their My Document redirection will be set up correctly.

Any probs, shout back!

yeah we've got a customer who uses sbs and the previous consultant did all sorts of bits and pieces to the server...it's *very* delicate as a result...always, always, always use the wizards!!!
