How to sync domain user desktops to be accessed from anywhere

  • I am trying to understand if there is a way to have domain user that has a normal workstations that is there has there outlook installed there office etc installed to access that stuff from a different computer on the domain. I know remote desktop can do this but most people here are not technology capable of connecting to a remote desktop. I really dont know what im looking for and am new to domains. This would be like a new person comes in they get a user setup and then are being trained on there account but on a workstation that is with the manager so would need to access there email or there quickbooks but from the other pc.

  • Answer:

    Remote desktop may work yet. You don't need to be technical to double-click an icon. You can create saved remote desktop connections that, upon double-clicking, either immediately connect to the remote computer with saved credentials or simply ask for a username and password. Another option is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roaming_user_profile. A user has their files and other profile information roam with them no matter the computer that they log onto. Note that applications do not roam with the person, on the files and settings in their profile folder.
