Close AutoCAD, this writes to the profile.
My suggestion would be to set up AutoCAD LT the way you want users to see the dialogue boxes (This doesn't change the Menus and toolbars, this is controlled through workspaces now, ours are also on the network). Importing them changes the settings in the user profile, along with all the other dialogue boxes. This is a problem when laptops leave the network, the groups are there with no palettes when they are away from the office, they come back to the office and the palettes are back but the groups saved in the profile don't have any palettes and have to be deleted and reloaded. Groups however are supposedly only local to the user and have to be imported. The palettes load without a problem by setting the filepath in options (or a reg key tweak). We work on LT 2009/2010, i've set up centralised Toolpalettes on the network. My computer cannot keep up with me most of the time. I use tool palettes a lot.maybe too much. Whenever you use a certain hatch a lot, you can just click on the icon in the tool palette and then click in the space you need it and voila! the proper hatch with the correct layer and everything! The cool thing about it is that if you have custom hatches, or pre-defined dimensions or anything else like that, they are super easy to add to the tool palette. I have been working with Tool Palettes for a while now and I love using them and customizing them for all my blocks. Short version.basically, it works the same pulling from a server as it does your own computer.
