From: Steve Audus, Chaucer BEC, Sheffield UK on

You previous post helped me greatly,
but as a continuation of the problem is..

The users, desktop and start menu are redirections to a server address,
which are not being displayed when the cached user logs on when not
connected to the network, but this did use to happen, and continues to work
fine on staff laptops we haven't re-ghosted.

Can you help?

Thank you.
