I have a windows 95 box that a number of users log on to.

I want to set up outlook so that whenever a user logs on, a profile is
automatically generated for connection to the exchange server.

I found a fixprf utility in the zero admin kit, but the documentation
is a bit sparse.

Does anyone have some more comprehensive instructions for setting this
up????

thanks

Interested to see what answers you get on this, myself. I've gotten as far
as enabling multiple profiles, but the user has to choose the profile to get
at their mailbox. (reply if you need advice onmy temporary workaround)
Must be somewhere i've gone wrong in setting up the Win95 profiles on the NT
box?

95 User Profiles is the way to do it. The Exchange profile is
stored in the user registry, which is saved in the user's home
directory on the NT server. If the user profile isn't being
saved there, their home directory (a share) is not properly
defined in the User Manager profile section.

Have a look at:
