I will look in the logs of the next one, have one coming in to be redone
tomorrow. But it is odd that I can remove their profile from the pc
totally and make it pull the server side and it still fails.

When windows login fails, often windows gives a path error. My
suspicion is that some rougue data with incompatible perms has gotten
into the local users profile. I've seen it happen, but I'll be damned
if I can remember the cause.

We are currently using samba and openLDAP to enable our users to have
roaming profiles on our domain network. We have one primary domain
controller and 7 "home servers" at the various locations that serve the
profiles and such. The problem is that randomly various users are unable
to load their profile and windows just gives them a temporary profile.
This mostly happens on vista machines but is not limited to that as it
has happened on XP also. What is odd is the user can login as themselves
on another machine just fine and other users can "usually" log in on the
first users pc just fine. We have tried the standard checking log files,
remove/reinstall pc into domain/ldap, remove/reinstall user into
domain/ldap, etc but nothing seems to work. What we usually end up doing
is reinstalling the users OS and programs. I know there has to be a
better way to do this. Is there anything I may be missing here? Any
pointers are more than welcome.
