Hi, Iam not sure if this fixes the problem, with desktop and profiles, but
it's worth a try.
I know there are some programs that allow you to add your
laptop/workstation to multiple domains instead of one that is the windows
default.

I cannot remember what the names are of these programs are, but Google! is
your friend :)
