Hi Philip,
I've got roaming profiles working very nicely using 2.2.3a and win2k - the
setup I have has worked for NT4 samba 2.0 through various versions of samba
and win2k. It also works for win98.
The first settings that you need to setup are:
logon path = \\myserver\profiles\%u
logon drive = z:
logon home = \\myserver\%u
logon script = login.cmd
-----------------------
Which means that you need a share "profiles" as well as "netlogon".
the profiles share should be writable by the group, otherwise it won't work
(e.g. public group)
The netlogon share should contain a login.cmd file that maps drives. Note
that with win2k you don't need to map a home drive - the above will do it
for you.
-----------------------
[netlogon]
comment = Network Logon Service
path = /home/netlogon
write list = @domainadmin
share modes = no
[Profiles]
path = /home/profiles
browseable = no
write list = @public
force group = public
-----------------------
example login.cmd file:
----------------------
@echo off
echo ************************************************
echo Welcome to Far Edge Technology
echo
echo Unauthorised access is prohibited by law, and
echo will be prosecuted
echo
echo Mapping network resources:
echo
net use p: \\myserver\public
net use s: \\myserver\downloads
echo
echo Mapping drives complete
echo Applying virus patches
p:\Virusupdate\Setup.exe
echo And have a nice day
echo ************************************************
--------------------------
Obviously your own setup will vary depending up what you want mapped, and
whether you want to synchronise time upon login etc.
Cheers,
Chris
