I am having a problem with a client computer running w2k on a network with w2003 sbs. Every time the user deletes anything from his desktop or more specifically his recycle bin, logs off then logs back on, the deleted files reapear. His profile loads with no errors. It seems like there is a sync error, but the absence of an error message is puzzling. Can anyone shed some light?

W2K RECYCLE BIN NOT UPDATING

I'm assuming that you are using Roaming profiles.
Try this. Log off his machine after removing the icons. Once logged off, navigate through the uses profile to see if the document is still there. If it is then look inside the Event View for events that the Profile was not being updated.
It could also be that the profile the user logs into as is a "Temp". To check, I have done this.
1. Right click on any shortcut on the desktop.
2. Under the general tab, look at the file path. Is that the user's profile location?
