Set Up Roaming Profiles for Windows 7 — Server Basics 12
Set up roaming profiles for Windows 7 clients on Windows Server 2008 R2. Create a shared profiles folder on the server, point a domain user's profile path to it, then watch the profile follow the user from one machine to another — desktop files, wallpaper, and even a saved Solitaire game carry over on login.
