Quick question about redirecting folders

[GrumbleDook]

@ajbritton: Yep .. pretty much the same here, but we have one Mandatory profile for *all* students.

 

There are a few things in the default user profiles that are specific to the certain rooms, but these are rareties ...

 

The staff have roaming, as I have said before, this is due to the laptops and home use.

 

I'll stick my bit in the Wiki later.

@mark: Whoa there! I think you're going to start a civil war. When I suggested a wiki, I was thinking more along the lines of something explaining the following;

 

- what a profile actually is and why it is necessary (you CAN'T not have profiles, it's impossible)

- the different types of profile available (temporary, local, mandatory, roaming)

- pros/cons of each profile type

then and only then

- suggestions on suitability of each profile type to particular environments

 

I'm only mildly interested in how other people take care of their profiles, I know what works for me. I wanted to help those who come to EduGeek looking for answers, who perhaps don't have the same experience or understanding of profiles that some members do.

 

I'm a bit worried that all we are doing with the current wiki format (which looks a bit confrontational) is moving the debate from the forum to the wiki pages.

 

Beginning to wish I'd kept my gob shut about the whole damn thing

Not at all. It looks like it could be quite a useful reference. I've cheekily grabbed the easy one (setting up and managing local profiles) for a kick-off. Any improvements welcome, obviously.

Agreed AJB - I've removed my original section.

 

Love the new layout - absolutely on the nail. Just what we need [iMHO ]

Cheers Mark,

 

I've chilled out a bit since last night. Sorry if I came over like a bit of a t**t.

Not at all AJB - you were right.
