Roaming Profile Problem
This is a discussion about Roaming Profile Problem in the Windows Networking category; I have finnaly migrated my entire network over to 2003. It was a long slow process over several weeks but I finnaly finished. However there is one big problem I cannot fix. Each user is using a roaming profile, and they all work fine.
I have finnaly migrated my entire network over to 2003. It was a long slow process over several weeks but I finnaly finished. However there is one big problem I cannot fix. Each user is using a roaming profile, and they all work fine. Except one machine will not log on using a roaming profile. I logged onto the machine once, restarted it, and when I try to log on now, It just sits at "Applying your personal settings" and does nothing. It is only happening on this one machine. My clients are all running updated versions of 2000 professional. My server is updated. I've tried deleting and recreating the user profiles with no success. If anyone has any idea why this is happening please fill me in. Thanks

OP
Well I fixed the problem... If anyone is having this problem this is what I did. I logged in locally, and after checking my event log and taking the event ID to Microsoft's website I found it is an Internet Security. In some cases Norton Internet security (the firewall) will block access to the server. The error will show up in the log as a RPC error. I uninstalled Norton Internet Security (Left my Anti-virus there mind you) and it worked perfectly. My network has a very nice hardware firewall, so this stupid little software firewall is pretty much useless. Hope that helps anyone that has that same problem
