A. Once you have enabled individual profiles on the Windows 9x machines a copy of the profile is automatically stored in the users home directory (which is normally on a network server) and will consist of a number of files and a user.dat which is the Windows 9x equivalent of ntuser.dat.
Therefore to enable roaming profiles for Windows 9x machines nothing needs doing except the following:
- Ensure all users are configured with a home directory on a network server (this is configured using User Manager - Profiles button in Windows NT 4.0, and the Directory Management MMC - Profile tab in Windows NT 5.0)
- Make sure the users have at least read, write and modify to their home directory areas otherwise the profile cannot be copied but no error will be given
