I tried a similar trick with the added step of changing from a tdbsam backend to ldap and found the same windows profile issue. Strangely if the user was a local or domain admin things were ok. I found the only work around at the time was backup the users profile before deleting it and letting windows create a new one and transferring anything important back from the old profile.

In my case the retiring server was CentOS 4.5 and the new one CentOS 5.2

All,
I am in the process of moving a PDC to a new server, the config, *.tdb files, linux user account files (/etc/passwd,shadow,group) and /home have all been moved successfully, shares and authentication is working great.

Issue:
When I login and the system loads my roaming profile all my "recent Programs" list are gone, I cannot add more programs to this list in the start menu (no error just won't show) and it appears other windows settings are not getting properly loaded either (i.e. I have a gray start bar instead of my normal green/blue bar)

Background on the move:
Old Server:
Ubuntu 6.06(i386) running Samba 3.0.22

New Server:
Centos 5.2(i386) running Samba 3.0.28

Clients:
All Windows XP Pro previously part of the Domain

Any one have any advice for solving this issue?

Aaron
