Hi Samabatistas,
I have a ldap smb pdc and a ldap smb bdc in a different subnetc.
connected via a vpn
Users work at the place of the pdc have their home and their profile there,
Users working on the place of the bdc have their home and their profile on the bdc.
I did this with editing their ldap attr. on the pdcs ldap master
this works like charme, but sometimes
the automatic home drive mapping fails and i have such entry in the log
this behavior is not permanent , anybody a idea what might be the failure?
i recognized the failure mostly appears if a wins proxy on the fire wall get restarted is it a thing with wins?
add info ,no failure with the profiles appear

[homes] share not available for this user because it was not found or created at session setup time
---- that surely sounds like the problem. I would bet that the same computer which doesn't get the 'home' share loaded also cannot see the computer in Network Neighborhood nor could even ping it at that point by pinging the NETBIOS Name of the 'home' share for the user.
It's easy enough to test - if you create an LMHOSTS file which has the ip addresses of the PDC & BDC and load it on one of the computers in the remote location, it will not have trouble finding either one but the ones machines that don't have this LMHOSTS file are struggling to find them.

i fixed a few wins parameter also the win resolve order now the failure is gone.Lmhost maybe a good debug feature but it is now way for me to fix failures.
