I connected a Vista workstation to a server 2003 domain, signed in successfully, but none of my files show up?
I successfully connected the computer to the domain, restarted the computer, selected "Other Users" and signed in successfully. But after signing in, the desktop was not configured like it normally looks on xp workstations in the office, and none of my icons were there. Additionally, none of my files are in the Documents, Pictures, or Videos folders. How do I get the files on the network to show up in my vista workstation's personal folders?

Do you have scripts running in your users profiles?
If you have no scripts, you will need to map the drives that you need.

Were you previously syncing the folders in question with the server per user? If not, you will have to copy the data from the other PC, either to the server and then the new PC or from PC to PC.

Thanks for any input.
