> What matters is when the include file section is interpreted. What will be > required is that the include is re-interpreted at every user login, and I did a little reasearch on this parameter and a bit of subsequent testing. The samba include parameter interpretes the include file real-time. I successfully used it to setup local profiles in one instance and roaming in another. The parameter takes the form: include = /etc/smb.conf.samba-variable
UNFORTUNATELY, I could not get this parameter to work with %U or %u samba variables. However, I did get the parameter to work with the %m samba variable. Specifically, 1)I input the parameter include = /etc/smb.conf.%m in my smb.conf file, 2)Created several smb.conf.xxxxx files for various test client machines. These "smb.conf snippets" contained samba parameters to use roaming profiles for one machine and local for another, 3)Logged onto the test machines and checked to see what type of profile the client was using. I'll see what more I can find out about this thing by posting on the Samba mailing list.
