From: lenny109 on 14 Dec 2009 09:30 Hi, We have a sbs 2003 with also a TS server. Over the last week many of our login profiles seem to have become corrupted and when a user logs in they get a screen as if it is the first time they have logged in with only the basic icons and their individual settings not installed. In TSserver/users there have appeared two sets of folders for each user. The 'username' folder, which has always been there and also a new one called 'username(SERVERNAME)'. I have had to copy all the data from the 'username(SERVERNAME)' folder and transfer it into a new 'username' folder. This seems to have worked but I am sure something is wrong. This brings me to another point. Many files have also now copied themselves to the same location as the original but with the extra name in brackets e.g. 'filename(SERVERNAME)' attached and the original files are not opening. This is causing us major problems with the databases we run. What could be causing this? What can I do to stop it from happening? and is there a quicker fix than copying, pasting and deleting files? Cheers Lenny

One thing that might trigger this is if some permissions changed denying access to some or all of the profile directory. -- Regards, Dave Patrick ....Please no email replies - reply in newsgroup.

From: Dave Patrick on 14 Dec 2009 10:56 You might want to download the diagnostic tools from the disk manufacturers web site. Disk may be failing and or file system corruption. -- Regards, Dave Patrick ....Please no email replies - reply in newsgroup.

I will do that but there is no other sign of disk failure occurring including nothing on the event viewer. The rest of the system seems to be working just fine. What about something to do with SugarSync online backup? I have that installed on both computers. Today I have deleted the program but of course it is too late.
