Implementing Mandatory Roaming Profiles
System administrators often ignore one of their most useful
tools:
IntelliMirror, which makes sure that users' files, apps, and
settings are
available wherever they log on. Mitch Tulloch and Chris
Sanders show how
to use it to implement mandatory roaming profiles.

The Microsoft-Symantec War over Vista 
Symantec has been making a fuss over the security changes

Tulloch guides
you to them both.
