Hi,

i have a LDAP Master / Slave setup, but my roaming profiles are lying on the PDC.

Whats the best method to keep the profiles in sync? Or should i use another FileServer for the profiles?

what do i have to check in smb.conf for having profiles on a different machine? do i also need to move the netlogon dir?

cheers

Caveat- I don't currently use roaming profiles. I believe however that a user will only have one network directory for his or her roaming profile. Roaming profiles will sync between the user's current PC and the server, but not server-to-server.

According to man pdbedit you can set the profile for each user.

        Profile Path:   \\BERSERKER\profile

Man page for smb.conf shows

        logon path = \\PROFILESERVER\PROFILE\%U


I am guessing that the "per user" settings overrides the server default if you did not want all the roaming profiles on a single server. You may not want profiles on your PDC if you want to minimize network traffic or disk usage.

Each DC must have a netlogon directory. The member servers do not. You do need to make sure the login scripts are the same on each DC.
