Roaming profiles, terminal servers and local machines?

Question

Server equipment

Hello. Give advice on how best to proceed in this situation, I myself can not make any final choice.
There is a network of ~ 50 hosts, some of them are thin clients, some are ordinary PCs. All shopping malls naturally work on the terminal server, some of the users in the PC also work on the terminal and locally. I would like to introduce roaming profiles, but in this case, PC users will have the same local and terminal profile, which is not buzzing. How to be in this situation? Give users two different logins? Or is it possible to implement in AD that the user would use a roaming profile on the client PC, and a local profile on the terminal server? Please give me a smart idea.

Answer 1

In the account properties in AD, you can separately specify the path to the roaming profile for terminal connections.
As an alternative, use third-party solutions like Citrix Profile Management.

Or is it possible to implement in AD that the user would use a roaming profile on the client PC, and a local profile on the terminal server?

Maybe it's the other way around? :)

Answer 2

It's elementary ... disable roaming user profiles and synchronize them in the right place with your own means (at least with a script on post logout)
