Hi,

I do not know if the following is a samba or windows question. It seems to be samba question, and I do not know windows and any windows mailing list... (But I am pretty sure if I ask the local IT persons, they will say it is samba...)

I have a windowsXP computer in my win domain (planning to have more XP and win2000) and a linux server with samba. Samba is PDC, win profiles are not stored on the server.

I was running samba 3.0.10 for two days. If I remember well during this period the local files were stored in C:/Documents and Settings/username If I created a local user with the same name and logged in to to this user the same folder was used. (Great for laptops or in situation when the PDC is down.)

But I noticed some error messages in the log (now I know they were not important), so I upgraded to samba 3.0.14a. Now the Domain User (local) profiles are stored in the C:/Documents and Settings/username.DOMAINNAME folder. ???

What does make this difference? How can I have a domain and a local user with the same name and profile?

Thanks for your help in advance,
Tamas
