Is it possible to share profiles between different users with Samba 3.0CVS acting as a PDC, and XP Workstations?
All users are using the same profile share; the concept is that there's an "Admin" user which can read/write to this, so I can setup things such as Internet Explorer settings / Desktop/Start Menu items / color scheme, etc..., and all other users only have read only access to this share, yet use the same profile.
At the moment each user's trying to create its own profile, which isn't what I want (and isn't possible, considering the fact its a read only share).
If it makes any difference, I'm using jelmer's mysql module, and all users are in the same unix group.
The user profile usually contains the user registry entries (in a .dat file), Temporary Internet Files, various application specific settings and temp access areas. Therefore the clients need write access to this area. Furthermore, unless they're all logging in with the same username, you can't share a single profile over disparate users. Again, this is a limitation of Windows not Samba.
