Windows XP and windows Vista roaming profiles

Hello

I’m currently running Server 2003 R2 for my home based business and using
roaming profiles. My work stations are running Windows XP pro and everything
has worked great for the last three years. I have purchase a new computer and
it running Windows Vista ultimate. I have added the Vista machine to the
domain and have noticed that user profiles are not loading to the Vista work
station.

I did a little research on the net and it seems that XP profiles are not
compatible with Vista profiles. I have noticed that I have two profiles for
each user , the old XP profile and the new Visa profile .V2 After a little
more research it seems that I need to setup a folder redirect to keep the
profiles the same.

I read through the MS Roaming User deployment guide:

I’m not sure if this is how to solve my problem or is there a simpler way to
do this. I want to be able to use the same roaming profile in windows Server
2003 on my work stations running XP and Vista.

I’m not sure if this is possible and wondering if I should move all my
profiles to the new Vista profiles and upgrade all my work stations to Vista 
