Debian stable: Samba -3.0.24-6etch2 I set up a samba server as a pdc.
smb.conf logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U logon home = \\%L\%U [profiles] comment = Network PRofiles Share path = /home/samba/profiles #read only = No #store dos attributes = Yes #create mask = 0600 #directory mask = 0700 #browseable = no #guest ok = no #printable = no writable = yes I created the folders /home/samba drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 2007-07-16 10:09 samba /home/samba/profiles drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 2007-07-17 10:27 netlogon drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 4096 2007-07-17 12:36 profiles I create user and add it to samba adduser newuser adduser newuser2 smbpasswd -a newuser smbpasswd -a newuser2 I am able to log in. Then I get an error from windows XP saying that it is not able to update/get my profile on the server. I read the http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2004-September/093587.html so I decided to add [profiles] admin users = newuser2 This means that newuser2 can act root. In my profile I get another folder created automatically only for newuser2 1. Why is the folder created only for newuser2 and not newuser? drwxr-xr-x 2 root newuser2 4096 2007-07-18 09:20 newuser2 2. Why is the /home/samba/profiles/newuser2 empty? It is not filled with roaming profile after I logging out of windows XP? I log in to newuser: cannot load a roaming profile, loading your local profile cannot locate local profile I log in to newuser2: cannot locate roaming profile on server 3. How do I make the roaming profile working. It is the case that setting up the users and adding logon path, logon home, profiles to smb.conf is not enough? What else needs to be done? -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
