Support for User Views and Site Policies

For Windows 95 and Windows NT users, a system administrator can create a directory on the PCNFSD server that contains user profiles and system policy files. Storing user profiles on the PCNFSD server allows users to have an identity separate from the machine on which they are working. Users can carry their preferences with them whenever they log in to any PC in the network.

The system administrator can use centrally located policy files to manage clients by customizing the desktops, configuring network settings, and restricting access to applications and options.

Support for user views and site policies requires the administrator to create a directory on the PCNFSD server called /opt/MSPolicy. For more information about managing Windows 95 and NT clients see Chapter 6, Managing Work Environments.
