Roaming Profiles

in Windows XP Professional
Hi
Trying to get some hands on experience with profiles prior to my exam. I tried to change the account type to a roaming profile, although XP won't let me and I'm restricted to a local profile. The option is grayed out. I have tried different account types (limited\administrator), also tried active\inactive profiles, new profiles and existing profiles and still NO LUCK. I've looked in group policy edittor at user profiles category and nothing really related to roaming profiles.
Any help is appreciated!
Cheers
Matt

    It looks like you get that message when you try to change the profile of the user that's currently logged on. Is that what's happening? Can you change the profile types for other users? Can you change that user's if you log on as another user?
