Hi Jenni,
Have you considered utilizing Folder Redirection (Desktop, Documents, =
Favorites etc=85) instead of profiles? Also, turn off indexing as a local c=
ache of the files are created each time so windows can index them.

Subject: Windows 7 Labs in AD
We are in the process of moving our Windows lab machines to Microsoft's AD =
environment and have run into some bumps. Our current environment is eDir, =
which consists of a Novell client running on Windows 7, where a user logs i=
n with their network credentials for network resources ( network drives, pr=
inter access - iPrint). We are using Autoadminlogon to redirect all logins =
to a local account with the user profile configured for the various applica=
tions installed on the lab image. However, now that these machines are join=
ing Microsoft AD, we are running into a problem where users are not being p=
rompted for their network credentials if Autoadminlogon is enabled.
We would like our windows 7 computers that are joined to a domain have doma=
in users login with their credentials but instead of creating a new local a=
ccount that matches that domain account we want it to login to a pre-config=
ured local account. We have Deep Freeze installed on these computers meanin=
g newly created profiles get wiped out at reboot resulting in long logins e=
very time.
How is your institution handling computer labs joined to a domain and user =
profiles?
