I have a couple of Windows Vista Computers that i freshly (re)installed, updated to SP2 + all updates, and joined to my domain... i also got an empty profile on the server (the storage folder is there, but there are no files inside)
When i log into the domain Windows creates all files and folders just fine and stores a cache of that profile in c:\users\username (like it should), And when i log out, Windows will write all the files it just created (pictures, desktop, ntuser.dat) to the server perfectly however if i login to the computer locally (not using the domain), and when i go to the c:\users\ folder the folder of the username is gone.... :( while i like it to stay there! so far i tried: - reinstalling windows multiple times - setting the following GPO's (although i never touched those) - computer\Administrative Templates\System\User Profiles\Delete userprofiles older than a specific number of days ==> disabled - computer\Administrative Templates\System\User Profiles\Delete cached copies of roaming profiles ==> disabled - computer\Administrative Templates\System\User Profiles\Leave Windows Installer and group Policy software ==> enabled - computer\Administrative Templates\System\User Profiles\Only allow local user Profiles ==> disabled - computer\Administrative Templates\System\User Profiles\Prevent Roaming profile changes propagating to the server ==> disabled - computer\Administrative Templates\System\User Profiles\Wait for remote user profile ==> enabled - computer\Administrative Templates\System\User Profiles\Slow network connection timeout for user profiles ==> disabled - User\Administrative Templates\System\User Profiles\Limit Profile Size ==> disabled - adding the following registry setting: - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System\ DeleteRoamingCache=0 This is with: - Gentoo Linux - Samba 3.5.2 (clustered with CTDB 1.0.114) - LDAP backend -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
