I have a unique question that I am sure that someone asked here before, but I am having trouble wording it.

I recently setup a domain on windows server 2008 and a Active Directory. I'm getting to start bringing workstations onto the domain, but before I do I wanted to ask if there is a way to make each profile the same for each workstation. This AD is for a Police Department where officers sit at different workstations, but need the same programs and folders. I have already tested ForensiT Profile Wizard which was successful for one workstation.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Do you mean that you want each and every profile to be the same exact thing throughout all of the clients, or do you want the profile to appear the same for each officer not matter where they sit (all of their settings, icons, etc). If you want the latter, you will want to do roaming profiles.
