[K12OSN] Roaming profiles

[Mark Gumprecht]

My /home is it's own partition. I have 146gb open on that one. I didn't 
know if I could do a mandatory profile or not.
I have a mix of win98,2k,xp and all do not have the same programs 
loaded. So if I put shortcuts for programs that exist on one machine 
that doesn't exist on another, it will confuse them.
I would love to see your script. I'm trying to hold out to 2pm when the 
high school lets out. I have 434mb left open on the /opt partition 
before she's full. Luckly I put the /opt on it's own partition.
Thanks
Mark
