Hi all,

We've been trying to setup/upgrade a samba PDC (version 3.56) with OpenLDAP as backend and roaming profiles for Windows7 (32bit) Clients. windows7 has
no problem
with login after applying the reg patches, however, it seems to always load a temporary profile as opposed to roaming one for users, no local profile
is created.
this has caused Outlook 2010 to function improperly (complains about outlook data cannot be accessed and fail to send any email), if i force profile
type
to local only in registry then outlook works perfectly, local profile is not an option for us though as a lot of our users change sites/pcs quite
often.

I've enclosed some related info below; the same config works perfectly with
windowsXP clients.

Ldap entries (samba related)

objectClass: sambaSamAccount
sambaSID: S-1-5-21-1209579028-1696229136-1764916649-15754
sambaHomePath: \\server1\user1
sambaProfilePath: \\server1\user1\.profile
sambaLogonScript: logon.bat
sambaAcctFlags: [UX         ]
sambaPrimaryGroupSID: S-1-5-21-1209579028-1696229136-1764916649-513

sambaProfilePath: \\oakland\profiles\pcuser
description: System User
homeDirectory: /home/pcuser
sn: pcuser
sambaHomePath: \\oakland\open

Works fine with XP, Vista and Win7

smb.conf

<SNIP>

[Profiles]
 path=/usr/home/sambashit/Profiles
 public = yes
  only guest = no
  browseable = yes
  writeable = yes
  printable = no
  create mask = 0770
  force create mode = 0770
  force directory mode = 0770
  directory security mask = 0770
  level2 oplocks = Yes

Security fine grained control using acls set from Administrator account on Windows workstation.




smb.conf

[global]
.....
logon drive = H:
logon home = \\%s\%U

[profiles]
   path = /home
   browseable = no
   read only = no
   profile acls = yes
   csc policy = disable
   hide files=/Desktop.ini/Thumbs.db/lost+found
   store dos attributes = Yes
   create mask = 0600
   directory mask = 0700

[profiles.v2]
copy = profiles


Any ideas?   thanks heaps.

has anybody managed to get Windows 7 (final) to use roaming profiles?
Windows

7 is joined to my Samba 3.4.1 domain and always logs me in with a
temporary

profile. Windows XP works without problems.
