Morning,
I have a user that keeps getting a temporary profile. The user is
logging into the machine so the authentication through samba to ldap
is working. The only item that looks odd to me in the machine log
(/var/log/samba/$MACHINE.log) is 'Re-using invalid record'. I've had the
user boot the machine and I've restarted samba (# service smb restart)
and the user is still getting the same temporary profile.
The user was able to log in to this machine without error on Friday
before the weekend.
Any ideas what to check next?
Look at the windows machine event viewer.

You may want to rt-click on "My Computer" and check out the user profile
entries. I ran into this last week. Typically, the "johnsmith"
user has a local profile also called "johnsmith." In this case the user
was linked to small profile "johnsmith.somethingelse" and the original
larger "johnsmith" profile was marked as type "backup." I deleted
the "johnsmith.somethingelse" profile and on the next logon the
computer correctly mapped the profile to the user. My guess is that
some file was not properly closed when he had last shutdown so that
Windows was unable to read/write where it needed.
The PC in question was a laptop. He may have unplugged his network
cable before logging out and shutting down.
We are not using roaming profiles.
