The following information applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows NT operating system version 3.1
  • Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1

It is possible to set the User Environment Profile in User Manager to set a user's default home directory to a remote station. If the remote station is not running at the time the user logs in, the default home directory becomes the local user default directory.

During installation, the default home directory is X:\Users\Default (where X is the boot drive).
