Site manager For network logons

Hello everyone,



My name is John, and i am an ICT Technician for my school. We
have been using dreamweaver for a few years now, and have come
accross a slight problem with the ''site manager'' tool. Basically,
we have 2000 Network users who we are looking to use this tool. The
user can set up the site with no problem, but the information is
lost when they log off the network. So, when they log on they will
have to set it up again.... What can be done to fix this problem?
Any ideas will be gladly recived :)



Thanks,



JohnSite manager For network logons

Site manager For network logons
We are running DW MX 2004,



That Technote dost quite apply to our problem, as an example
here is what is happening:



We would create a site profile (while logged on a pupil on
the domain) let's call it MY SITE.... All the ''Site manager''
features work properly. However, when we log off, ALL the data to
do with the MY SITE profile has been removed. and would have to be
re-created if we wanted to use it again.



I am thinking this is probably fixable via the regestry. Is
it possible to save the ''site manager'' data on a network drive as
opposed to the C: drive ( or MAC OS drive as we use Pc's and Macs)



Thanks,



John

question- is this machine running some kind of ''rollback''
software whose job

is to wipe out any changes to a person's profile or
non-approved registry

entries? This has come up before in questions about school
lab computers not

saving site information. At shutdown or at midnight, the
entire computer is

restored to a predefined state automatically



If there is such software on the machine- see if there is a
way in it's

settings/preferences to have it allow dreamweaver site
entries to the

registry and not wipe them.



otherwise- a work-around is to have the students use the
Export button to

create an .ste site definition backup file. Put that in a
place that's not

to be wiped. Then next work session, dw
menu--%26gt;site--%26gt;Manage Site--%26gt;Import

that .ste file and the site def is restored.
