Windows Server Forum / Windows NT / Terminal Server / November 2005Windows 2003 terminal server + citrix metaframe PS 4.0 + office 2000
We have an environment with windows 2003 server + citrix metaframe presentation server 4.0 and office 2000. We have installed office 2000 with an mst file (we followed the microsoft documentation), but now we have the following problem: We have a user named "X" and if user "X" changes a setting in his outlook settings, that setting is changed for all outlook users on the whole terminal server, but we can't find why this happens. I have found an MS article about the "default profile name" but i can't find anything more. Can anybody help me further ? Tnx in advance Peter v Welt Strange, you are the third poster this week with the same issue. And previously, I had not seen a single report about this. None of the other posters have replied yet, so I don't know if this is the problem or not, but the only thing that would explain the behaviour of the server is when it is running in install mode. You can easily verify that from the command prompt, with "change user /query" (without the quotes). If you are not running SP1 (because this is fixed in SP1), then this might be worth looking at: 826821 - Terminal Server Remote Session Unexpectedly Runs in Install Mode http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=826821 I would appreciate it if you reported back here if this solves your issue or not! Note that the main terminal services newsgroup is microsoft.public.windows.terminal_services You might want to follow the traffic there as well. _________________________________________________________ Vera Noest MCSE, CCEA, Microsoft MVP - Terminal Server TS troubleshooting: http://ts.veranoest.net ___ please respond in newsgroup, NOT by private email ___ "Peter v Welt" <pvanwelt@xs4all.nl> wrote on 25 nov 2005 in microsoft.public.windowsnt.terminalserver.applications: > We have an environment with windows 2003 server + citrix > metaframe presentation server 4.0 and office 2000.

I've looked at the mode which some diffrent accounts where running in, and at all it was "execution". But i think it's a good idea to patch to SP1 to solve this kind of issues. Can you explain why you think that outlook takes settings from 1 user at the server when it could have been in installation mode , because i don't understand why that could be. If you explain it, maybe i can identify the problem why office is "synchronising" settings from one user to all the others on the server. > We have an environment with windows 2003 server + citrix metaframe > presentation server 4.0 and office 2000. [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > > Peter v Welt When you install applications on a Terminal server (as an administrator), you should always put the server into "install mode" during the entire installation. In install mode, the server saves all changes made to the registry and to ini files in a specific area of the registry, called the shadow area. This is located in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion \Terminal Server\Install When a normal user later logs on to the server, he receives a copy of those registry settings. That way, each user receives a personal copy of the application settings. Now if a server runs continuesly in install mode, it is possible that changes made by one user are replicated to all users who log in to the server, since they would be stored in the shadow area and copied to each users personal registry hive ( = their profile).
