Users Shared Folders

[Sparkybear]

Hi guys

Can someone please put me out of my misery, and save me from spending another
day or so wasting my time trying to find the answer.

I just took delivery of new server with SBS 2003. Another company installed
it for us.

They set it up so that when you create a new user it automatically sets up a
user folder in "c:\Users Shared Folders"

I do not want that to happen there. I NEED it to happen in the D directory.

I have read about moving existing folders etc etc. But I dont need to do that
cause I have yet to set up the users, but will be shortly. All I want to do
is to change where the "Users Shared Folders" get set up, so that it sets it
up on my d drive and not the c drive.

I would have phoned the company who set it up but they are now on holiday
till after New Year. I need to have this up and running by then or else....!!!
!!!

Please tell me how to change the default setting.

Thanks in advance

The User Shared Folder is created by default when SBS 2003 is installed.

The procedure to move it is in here:

You note the permissions on the User Shared Folder, unshare it, move it to
the D: drive, share it, recreate the share permissions and then delete it
from the C: drive. (Follow the detailed procedure in the document above).
