Hello
I want to add Win7 machine to my Samba PDC with WinXP clients. Google tells me
I have to add a .V2 to my profiles. The samba log ask about a .v2 share.
Can someone explain me the difference of the v2 extension at the profile names
and the roaming profile share?
Following my settings:
smb.conf:
[global]
logon path = \\%L\nt-profile
logon home = \\%L\nt-profile
[nt-profile]
comment = Client Profiles
path = /BUERO/samba/nt-profile/%u
read only = No
create mask = 0600
directory mask = 0700
[nt-profile.v2]
comment = Client Profiles
path = /BUERO/samba/nt-profile/%u
read only = No
create mask = 0600
directory mask = 0700
ls -l /BUERO/samba/nt-profile
drwsrwsr-x 24 kira users 4096 2010-04-03 16:16 kira
drwxr-sr-x 2 kira users 4096 2010-04-02 18:59 kira.V2
These are 2 empty profiles.
I logged on to user kira with an XP client, set the background colour to green
and logged of. Profile kira was filled with data. Now I logged on to user kira
with an Win7 client, the background was black. I set the background to yellow
and logged of. The profile kira.V2 is still empty. Finally I logged on to kira
with XP and the background was yellow. So Win7 and XP are using the same
profile, which should be if I understand "mr. google" right. I thought I just
had to copy the roaming profiles to a profile with extension .V2.
I found following in the samba log during Win7 logon:
:
get_referred_path: |nt-profile.V2| in dfs path \testserver\nt-profile.V2 is not
a dfs root.
:
Connect path is '/BUERO/samba/nt-profile/kira' for service [nt-profile.v2]
:
connect to service nt-profile.v2 initially as user kira (uid=524, gid=100) (pid
12087)
:
reduce_name [.] [/BUERO/samba/nt-profile/kira]
:
Further, there is a reference to nt-profile.V2 (uppercase V2) and next a
connect to nt-profile.v2 (lowercase v2). What is the difference? Finally, the
profile kira is used and not kira.V2. Why?
Can someone explain me the correct setup of samba for Win7 clients?
