Administrator action: Create a folder with the name myuser.pdm in the
existing folder \\myserver\myshare, and then place the desired mandatory
profile into the new folder.
User action: None.
Notes: Once this procedure is performed, the Windows NT 3.5x profile is
still available to the user should he or she ever log on to a Windows NT
3.5x-based computer again. The Windows NT 4.0 User Profile is main-
tained separately. The administrator can remove the Windows NT 3.5x
profile if the user will only be using Windows NT 4.0-based computers.
For more information: See the section "Upgrading 3.5x Mandatory Pro-
files to 4.0 Mandatory Profiles."

\\myserver\myshare\myuser on the server containing the user' s new
roaming profile.
