title: Azure AD DS and Roaming Profiles
body: <p>I am trying to setup my Windows Server to host user Roaming Profiles and Data but am having trouble.</p>
  <p>I am using Azure AD Domain Services and have a powerful VM running Windows Server 2016 with AD that lists all the users synced from Azure AD.</p>
  <p>When I try to view the profiles and add users home directories with: \[ServerName]\UserHomes$%Username%, the folders are created correctly but I get an access denied message.</p>
  <p>I am using the Global Admin account and believe that permissions are set up correctly on the UserHomes directory.</p>
  <p>When I view an individual user, I am not able to add a home directory since this item is disabled.</p>
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/YlBmW.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/YlBmW.png" alt="User Profile View with Disabled Home Directory" /></a></p>
  <p>Am I going about this the wrong way since we are using the Azure AD DS and not a single on premises server AD?</p>
  <p>Appreciate any help or guidance!</p>
