Temp files

[zetsway]

This is driving me insane. I have a file server here at work. In the user's home drive I get all of these temp files like

frd2F2.tmp
frd4B7.tmp

and so on. All of the files are 0kb. It's just annoying because the user has to keep deleting these temp files.

I'm using Windows 2003 Server

Help!!

After a minute of Google search:

FRD*.TMP files in user folder after login on Server 2003.

"In a Windows server 2003 environment after each user logs in a frd***.tmp is created in the users\username folder. This happens every time a user logs in. The file is 0kb and can be deleted or moved without any problems. Does anyone know why this file is being created and how to stop it??"

"OK, figured it out... the reason you are getting the frd*.tmp files is that the user does not have enough security permissions on the server where his folders are stored... follow this document http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=274443 to set up the proper security rights and in my case the frd*.tmp files stopped occurring and instead the user's folders properly got redirected to the server. Again, if the user (or you) do not want his folders on the server, then you need to remove the group policy which is trying to redirect him...
