| | | | Hi,
I have a Vista Laptop and am trying to join to a SBS 2003 Premium network. I
would like to preserve the existing settings and so select the current user
settings for the new network user.
When I attempt to proceed, I receive a message that the User Profile Folder
is set to Private. What should I change and where in order to set the user
profile correctly?
Thank you.

Have you installed the updates for Vista compatibility on the SBS server and
the updates for SBS compatibility on the Vista computer?

Hi Kerry,
Yes, although I have not yet installed ISA on the server.

You don't need ISA to join a Vista computer to the domain. It's probably a
folder somewhere in the profile with a permissions problem. See this link
for how to find it.

There's some possibilities here as well.

Thanks, the information was useful. The problem was a temp file that needed
to be deleted. However I now have new problems arose as a result of
installing the PC:
1. Logon is extremely slow (up to around 10 minutes)
2. Log-on says that profile has not loaded correctly and now using
previously saved profile (event viewer says "This computer was not able to
set up a secure session with a domain controller in domain XYZ due to the
following:
There are currently no logon servers available to service the logon request.
This may lead to authentication problems. Make sure that this computer is
connected to the network. If the problem persists, please contact your domain
administrator." )
3. The Vista machine now has no Internet access
I have (probably incorrectly)
1. Removed the Vista machine from the domain and returned to workgroup
2. Used system restore to return to a set-up state prior to introducing to
domain
3. Installed ISA (still in its raw state - no configuration as yet)
What can I do short of starting over?

If you installed ISA you need to rerun the CEICW wizard to configure it. If
you don't understand what ISA does I'd recommend you uninstall it. Make sure
you backup the server first. As I said before there was no need to install
ISA just to join a Vista computer to the domain. The second problem sounded
like a misconfigured DNS problem. It could also be a problem with the
network setup on the server if SP2 is installed or on the Vista client.

Can you describe your network. Is the SBS server also the DHCP and the DNS
server? Do you manage the server with the built in wizards? Did you join the
Vista computer to the domain with the connectcomputer wizard?

Hi,
All items mentioned were completed:
1. Re-ran CEICW after installing ISA
2. SBS is both DNS and DHCP server
3. Client uses SBS server as preferred DNS
4. Using wizards to complete all work on server
5. Used connectcomputer wizard to join network
I have read in some forums that ISA does not completely uninstall and so
have left that as a last resort. I am also planning on manually copying all
profile files onto an external drive so that they can be directly returned to
the client. Then I am free to do whatever is necessary with the server
without fear of loss of data.

Sounds like that's all good then.If ISA is installed and working I'd leave
it in place. It's an excellent firewall solution. Did you make the changes
on the Vista client.
netsh interface tcp set global rss=disabled
netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled
and reboot
And the SBS server

Can you post the results of "ipconfig /all" from the SBS server and from a
Vista client that has problems?
If you have SBS 2003 Premium (comes with ISA) and you ran the CEICW wizard
it should not be blocking any of the standard services the SBS uses. What
was it blocking? Was ISA installed on the SBS server or a different server?
