Geek pop quiz!
Nov. 4th, 2011 10:24 amQuestion: A person is logging into the same roaming profile from two machines at once (one WinXP Desktop, One Win2003 Terminal Server, both via RDP)
He sometimes logs out of one or the other.
He complains that settings stored in his profile for applications go missing - He uses the XP desktop to run Project, and his Project interface settings go AWOL roughly once a week.
Is it just me, or this is "exactly the behaviour I would expect from logging into the same profile from two machines at once"?
(Domain is samba/LDAP, not Active Directory. Original workstation that he's RDPing from is CentOS, where his home folder is ALSO this same profile mounted directly from a NAS device. If it matters.)
