HAP with Folder Redirection

[StephenKing]

Hi,

 

We've just looked into setting up HAP and have been testing it aiming towards our future goals (moving to Win7 possibly this summer). Our current folder shares seem to work by sharing the individual folder.

e.g. \\servername\homes\%username%$

 

However for our win7 build our folders will be shared using folder redirection and is created by gpo when the user logs in.

e.g. \\servername\homes$\%username%

 

Best Practice: Roaming Profiles and Folder Redirection (a.k.a. User State Virtualization) - Group Policy Central This gives an overview of how we set up our win7 folder redirection.

 

Now when configuring the drive mapping the first method works when either mapping via \\servername\homes\%username% or %homedir but if the folder is shared using the second method we can't seem to get the drive mappings on HAP to work, it just says "Something is wrong" with the below in event viewer:

An error occurred in Home Access Plus+

Something is wrong

Any help would be much appreciated.

That error is to do with not having permissions to impersonate the user on the server, check the users have local logon rights.

 

Folder redirection is one thing, you still need to set the Home Drive in AD as well

Thanks for that, we were testing on a DC so they didn't have access to log on the server.
