Description Arvid Requate

2016-03-30 17:41:43 CEST

The "Windows profile directory" attribute in the account session of a user object in UMC currently doesn't provide a tooltip. Since the meaning and syntax of this value is not strictly obvious (see Bug #40963) the user would benefit from context information at this point. Proposal:


To configure a roaming profile the attribute needs to be set to a value that is resolvable by windows clients, for example to

  %LOGONSERVER%\%USERNAME%\windows-profiles\default

Again confusion at: Ticket#2016033121000215

Imho the whole attribute group should be improved with tooltips:

Account → Windows
* Windows home drive
* Windows home path
* Windows logon script (see Bug 40965)
* Windows profile directory
* ...

I used the patch as base for the descriptions but added usability improvements (e.g. strike out unnecessary words and phrases). German translations have been added.
