DOCUMENT:Q106389 10-NOV-1993 [W_NT]
TITLE :Home Directories and Non-Windows NT Clients
PRODUCT :Windows NT
PROD/VER:3.10
OPER/SYS:WINDOWS
KEYWORDS:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT operating system version 3.1
- Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1
------------------------------------------------------------------
When you log on to a Windows NT domain from a non-Windows NT client,
the home directory specified in your account profile does not have any
effect.
A Windows NT home directory is a directory that is accessible to a
user and may contain that user's files and programs. The specified
home directory becomes the user's default directory for the File Open
and Save As dialog boxes, the command prompt, and applications that do
not have a defined working directory.
The home directory for a particular user account can be specified by
using User Manager to set the profile for the user account. The home
directory setting in the User Environment Profile dialog box, however,
only takes effect when you log on to a client running Windows NT or
Windows NT Advanced Server.
For example, if you connect to a Windows NT domain from a client
running LAN Manager and Windows 3.1, any home directory specified in
the logon account profile is ignored. Therefore, if you run
COMMAND.COM or activate the File Open dialog box, the default
directory will be the directory defined by the Windows 3.1 WINDIR
environment variable.
