How to Save User Profiles on a Microsoft Windows NT Server
This article was previously published under Q138046
You may be unable to save user profiles to a Microsoft Windows NT server.
This problem can occur if the following conditions exist:
- The Primary Network Login setting is not set to Client For Microsoft Networks.
- User profiles are not enabled.
- A Home directory is not set up correctly for the user on the domain.
To resolve the problem, follow these steps:
- Set the Primary Network Login setting to Client For Microsoft Networks.
- Enable user profiles.
- Set up a Home directory on the Windows NT server. To verify that the
Home directory is set up correctly, type the following line at an
MS-DOS prompt
net use <x>: /home
where <x> is a drive letter.
If you receive an error message stating "The syntax is incorrect,"
Home directories are not set up correctly.
For additional information about setting up Home directories, please
see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
