You did give me some info and I appreciate that....here's the profiles section of my smb.conf [profiles] path = /opt/samba/profiles writeable = yes browseable = no #create mode = 0644 #directory mode = 0755 # this prevents users from browsing other peoples' profiles create mode = 0600 directory mode = 0700 Note we changed the create mode and directory mode from what was given by the folks from IDEALX in their example....in an effort to secure things. I can see in your example that you did the same. Due to the name of the smbldap_conf.pm file I'm aware that you're using an older version of smbldap-tools. This past summer I migrated from RH 9 using an older version of smbldap-tools and Samba 2 to Fedora Core 2 using Samba 3 and smbldap-tools 0.84 (what I'm using on my production server....0.86 is what we use in the script). Things changed dramatically in the newer versions. Name changes...and in the latest version....location changes. No longer is smbldap-tools located in /etc/smbldap-tools....nor are the executables located in /usr/local/sbin.....they are now in /opt/IDEALX/sbin. Anyway...in version 0.84 there was a "bug" or "feature" where in order to get smbldap-populate to work (because of the adding of the Administrator user) you had to go to smbusers and comment out the line with #root = administrator admin Once one did this...everything worked fine. I'm wondering if things have changed with the newer version of smbldap-tools and possibly the later version of samba in FC3 that make this uneccesary and perhaps "naughty". My hunch is the profiles issue is a permissions problem...not in the sense that the profiles directory is not 1777 (which it is) but rather something amiss with Administrator. In earlier versions of Samba and smbldap-tools (at least in my case) "root" was the user that I used to join Windows machines to the domain (entered on the Windows machine)....now it is "Administrator"....but quirky little things are making me wonder if that's not the case anymore.
