Subject: Active Directory user goes corrupt

Hi All!

I am new to active directory and I am presently managing one in a firm. A
staff comes to me and says his desktop contents are no longer there and with
his login he cannot open packages on the his system.  Initially, I thought
it was his computer but after I logged in with my own user and he tried
logging into the domain on other computers he had the same problem. It seems
his user profile on the server (Windows Server 2003) has gone corrupt. 

How did that happen? And what am I to do? These are the questions on my
head.  In the main time I have created another user for him and I am going
through the pain of transferring giving him privileges to what he should
have access to.  Any help?

Also, I will like a recommendation of where I can get some free books on
Active directory management.

Thanks!

Peter
