I haven't tried 2006 yet but as I recall custom paths didn't work in LDT2005
deployment images, so it wouldn't surprise me if it's still broken...

Still Broken.
I checked my deployment image and the pathing I added is there.
Checked the install on my local machine and nothing but the defaults were installed.

In previous releases I have manually edited a sdsk.dfm file and used a script to replace the installed one. However, a search of my C: does not find a sdsk.dfm. Has this changed?

It's buried in the profile now:

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application
Data\Autodesk\Autodesk Land Desktop 2006\R16.2\enu\Support

When you do your search, make sure to toggle on "Search hidden files and
folders".

Wouldn't it be nice if Autodesk fixed these little things that are such a
pain instead of giving us new features all the time...'wishful thinking, I
guess...

Show hidden files & folders is checked on and I have searched my entire c: drive and there is no sdsk.dfm. Symbol manager appears to be working, I can customize it but I have no idea where the information is being saved to.

Not show, but search.

"Search hidden files and folders" under "More advanced options" within the
search companion window to the left?

Thank you. I still can't see it with show hidden files checked on from windows explorer. I didn't realize this level of security existed or for that matter was neccessary for a sdsk.dfm file. But thanks again, I will figure out how to get in from explorer now that I know it's there and where it is.

For what it is worth I found my sdsk file under C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application Data\ Autodesk\Autodesk Land Desktop 2006\R16.2\enu\Support but was looking in C:\Documents and Settings\user\\Application Data\Autodesk\Autodesk Land Desktop 2006\R16.2\enu\Support where I found all user specific files in 2004.
