This is part of my policy template (win95) in which I turn off roving of profiles. Profiles are still used, but not roved.
KEYNAME Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion
POLICY !!EnableUserProfiles
PART !!EnableUserProfiles CHECKBOX
KEYNAME Setup\Network\Logon
VALUENAME UserProfiles
END PART
PART !!DontRoveProfiles CHECKBOX
KEYNAME Setup\Network\Logon
VALUENAME UseHomeDirectory
VALUEON NUMERIC 0
VALUEOFF DELETE
END PART
PART !!DontCacheProfiles CHECKBOX
KEYNAME Winlogon\DeleteRoamingCache
VALUENAME UseHomeDirectory
VALUEON NUMERIC 1
VALUEOFF DELETE
END PART
END POLICY
If profiles ARE used you should not NOT ROVE and NOT CACHE unless you don't want a permanant presence for that user.
Your will need to adjust the key names for winNT.
I haven't tried don't cache but got it from this list. I use don't rove and it works.
