Hi, Derek - I don't understand your post, sorry. Are you talking about
offline files? that's built in, although I do not recommend the 'feature'
unless these are laptop users. Your desktop users should always be working
"live" off the server.

Or are you talking about roaming profiles?

You'll need to be more speicific as to what you use and are trying to do in
order for us to help.

Where do you want those files to be copied to? Depending on the
destination location on the client, you either need to use a computer
startup script or a user logon script. The difference between the two is
that the computer startup script runs in the SYSTEM context which is
elevated and has permission to write to nearly any file system location.
User logon scripts run in the user's context-- if the user is not an
admin, the script won't be able to write to special locations (like the
Windows folder).

Cheers,
Florian
