Hello, I've setup a PDC with Samba 3.0.31 and I am testing on a Windows Vista box (64 bits version). Often I get the message of programs that they are not responding and it takes about half a minute before I can use them again. Especially Mozilla Firefox has this problem often (allthough I'm using this program the most, so it is also the most obvious).
I am using roaming profiles with folder redirection. I excluded all folders from the profile through a registry setting and redirected all folders in the user shell folders to network drivers, except the folders that appear in 'AppData/Local' (so the local, machine dependent settings are excluded from the profile and they are located on the local disk of the computer). Does anyone recognize these problems? Does anyone know a solution, or the best way to troubleshoot this? My roaming profiles are working fine otherwise, all settings are nicely stored in the profile, I don't get any error messages and the user has the proper rights to write to any network drive that is needed for this user. Also I have no problems with the network connection. I detected no packet loss and the response time is fast (tried pinging to the server while the problem occured, average time was 0 ms and 0% packet loss). The problem is by far not occuring as much when I'm logged in using a local profile on the machine, so I think it must be some problem with the PDC connecting with Vista.
