Not quite sure on issue # 1, but as for issue # 2.
If you installed VMware tools on the virtualized terminal server, and if you enabled the "shared folders feature", there is a specific file that gets put under each user's profile which prevents user profiles from clearing off the server correctly. That file = hgfs.dat.
The following link details this issue and a suggested correction:

Hello—
Sorry for what I imagine is a very basic question. But I administer (among other servers at a non-profit) only two Terminal Services servers (Windows Server 2003) that are mostly "set and forget." So when problems crop up, I don't have much experience to draw on.
Anyway, I recently migrated one of my TS servers to a virtual environment (VMWare Infrastructure). Almost all went well. There are two problems, though:
1. When people log off the terminal server, their printers don't delete. A lot of these printers, though not all, are the Fallback Printers.
2. User's profiles are located on another server but are cached locally on the terminal server. When the user exits, the cached profiles are not being deleted. And then the next time the user logs onto the TS, a new copy of the cached profile is created. Any particular user now has many many cached profiles.
Neither of these behaviors were exhibiting themselves before the migration. As far as I can see, all the appropriate local policies and permissions moved over in the migration. There's nothing in the Event Logs.
Can anybody help me figure out what's going on?
Thanks,
Rob
