Multi site users - roaming profiles

Hi all,

for a multi site installation (small bandwidth VPN) we have traveling users who login at one site today and another tomorrow. When these users login in at a site where their home server resides there are no problems to logon. If they log on on a different site, their login takes forever as their machine attempts to load the profile over the VPN.

We could sync home shares of these users overnight to keep identical data on multiple servers. However, we must select a home server for each user account - AFAIK there is no way to set up the user account to use the nearest server (i. e. the server on the lokal network).

What is your suggestion to solve this problem ?

Thanks - Martin
