Vulnerability Roaming Profiles Affected NAV 7.x for Corp. Edition Description Peter Heath found following. When the user logs off, the newer roaming profile will NOT be uploaded to the PDC every time, only once in while? Admin seems to have no problems, but a Domain User has to log OFF/ON a number of times in the same session (day) before it's uploaded. On the \\Local\Winnt\Profile folder and the \\PDC\Profile$ folder, the permissions are as follows: Everyone:Full, System:Full and Administrator:Full. The "Access this computer from the Network" includes the Everyone Group. Sometimes a user can go days/weeks without their roaming profile be uploaded. Sometimes the profile is uploaded 2 days in row and then go a week without an upload? Very puzzling. Solution Symantec has confirmed (see link below) this to be a problem. Symantec's NAV Enterprise Solution 4.0 & 4.01 (SSC 4.0 & NAV Corp. Ed. 7.0/7.01) are interfering with NT's logoff process and prevents, in most cases, the Roaming Profile from being uploaded to the PDC. Note: Symantec's NAV Enterprise Solution 4.01 was rushed out to their Upgrade Insurance Program customers because NAV Enterprise Solution 4.0 was causing all sorts of problems. Looks like the problems still exist (see link): http://servicenews.symantec.com/cgi-bin/browse.cgi?group=symantec.support.network.nortonantivirus.corporateversion7&product=nav&mini_version=nav7%2Dce&
