The information in this article applies to:
Step 4 on page 428 of the Windows NT Advanced Server System Guide implies that mandatory user profiles can be assigned to local groups. This is a documentation error. If you assign a mandatory profile to a local group when you, as a user from that local group, attempt to log onto a Windows NT computer other than the primary domain server in that domain, you the following error message appears:
You are then unable to logon. This occurs because local groups can be accessed only by the domain servers and not by the workstations. Also, the permissions on the profiles assigned to local groups can be read only by the primary domain controller of the domain. You should assign mandatory user profiles to Global groups instead of Local groups. Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Windows NT Advanced Server System Guide for Version 3.1. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available. Additional query words: prodnt
