Roaming profiles - such a pain, but then you realise the alternatives and the problems they'd cause. I ended up fixing a machine which had been corrupting the profile of everyone who had logged in over the past two weeks or so, and fixed/reset a few profiles from that. Then there was an unrelated one where her profile just kept getting messed up and she couldn't get to her files or print. Another person who was over quota and had no clue why, and another person who just needed to clean some old junk out of her profile... And those are just the ones I can think of off the top of my head... Why couldn't Microsoft have just had them work off the server rather than copy & sync? Wait, the servers are running Windows...they can't be depended on to be reliable... Anyways, I guess the day ended up well since I went to Rudolph's for some really good wings. Dave and I didn't know where it was, both our phones were dead, and 10 managed to lose us when some car cut between us, but we ended up making it OK... Except now I smell like smoke. Oh well, it's a tradeoff...
