A, Have you tried ALT click MY COMPUTER--> PROPERTIES--> USER PROFILES--> CHANGE TYPE or COPY TO. (W2K)
There are hidden files that have to be replaced when you do a manual copy. Also try making a roaming profile for them copying over there old profile? Watch out for *.pst, contentIE, and desktop for roaming profiles sizes if you are not aware already. -Bob -----Original Message----- From: A Cline [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 09, 2003 7:00 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [Samba] Move existing Local Profile to Roaming Bob: Yes, the 20 or so new computers that I have attached to the PDC are all using Roaming profiles and they work great. Here are the lines from my smb.conf that you requested. [global] logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U [profiles] path = /home/samba/profiles guest ok = yes browseable = no read only = no create mask = 0600 directory mask = 0700 share modes = no My and your lines are very similar at the least.
