Environment

Novell ZENworks 6.5 Desktop Management Support Pack 2 - ZDM6.5 SP2 Application Launcher (NAL)
Novell ZENworks 7 Desktop Management - ZDM7 Application Launcher (NAL)

Situation

When a user creates Personal Folder information on one machine and logs out and then logs in on another machine, that Personal Folder information is supposed to follow the user. This is accomplished by writing to the NRD:Registry Data attribute of the user object.

Resolution

For ZDM7: Fixed in ZENworks 7 with SP1 Desktop Management, available at https://download.novell.com
For ZDM6.5 SP2: fixed in ZENworks 6.5 Desktop Management SP2 IR1 or newer found at https://download.novell.com/patch/finder

After applying the new code that fixes this issue, to realize this fix, the following registry value must be added:

HKLM\Software\NetWare\NAL\1.0\"DisableStorePersonalFoldersInNRD"=dword:00000000
