Not to belabor the point but here's what is confusing me, the eventlog on the client computer reports the following:
------------------------------------- Event Type: Error Event Source: Folder Redirection Event Category: None Event ID: 106 Date: 8/26/2003 Time: 11:32:25 AM User: CCIS-WINDOWS\colinj Computer: GALLIUM Description: Failed to perform redirection of folder My Documents. The full source path was <C:\Documents and Settings\colinj\My Documents>. The full destination path was <\ccis-windows\net\myhome>. At least one of the shares on which these paths lie is currently offline. ------------------------------------
Now it looks to me like the redirection is happening as the user. So the question is now, why is the share from the network appliance not showing up?

Hi Eric,
A particular CIFS homedirs is only visible if you're logged on as the user whose login is matching the foldername. I've got a similar issue when configuring the home directory in the user manager in our NT 4.0 domain. As I'm not logged on as the user, I can't see his homedir. However, have a look at this, maybe it might help you: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/prodt echnol/windowsserver2003/proddocs/datacenter/gpx_redirectHomeADV.asp
