Re: [Samba] Roaming Profile Mix-Up Between Users
Hi! First, thanks everybody for posting. It is a little bit odd that there seems to be quite different opinions on what is possible and what not. Storing Win2000 and WinXP roaming profile within the same directory: Possible or not? What trouble can be extepected? There seems to be no definitive answer for that question. In addition, my original problem still persists. Users still get the profile of the preceeding user who logged in. Robert, thanks for the example config you posted for the [profiles] share. I have to add that we have no dedicated profile path, but we store the profiles in /home/%u/.WindowsProfil . Can this be the cause of the trouble? The complete share config as we have it now: [profiles] comment = Windows-Profil path = /home/%u/.WindowsProfil valid users = %U, @Domain Admins force user = %U read only = No create mask = 0700 directory mask = 0700 guest ok = Yes profile acls = Yes hide files = /desktop.ini/ntuser.ini/NTUSER.*/ browseable = No csc policy = disable locking = No oplocks = No level2 oplocks = No Here is the directory listing with rights mask for my profile: hal:/home/marian# ls -la /home/marian/.WindowsProfil/ total 840 drwx-- 14 marian users 4096 Jun 6 13:14 . drwx-x 34 marian users 4096 May 16 10:50 .. drwx-- 14 marian users 4096 May 7 15:28 Anwendungsdaten drwx-- 2 marian users 4096 May 6 15:02 Cookies drwx-- 5 marian users 4096 Jun 1 11:52 Desktop drwx-- 2 marian users 4096 May 6 15:02 Druckumgebung drwx-- 6 marian users 4096 May 6 15:02 Eigene Dateien drwx-- 5 marian users 4096 May 6 15:02 Favoriten drwx-- 3 marian users 4096 May 6 15:02 His6 -rwx-- 1 marian users 786432 Jun 6 13:15 NTUSER.DAT -rwx-- 1 marian users 1024 Jun 6 13:14 NTUSER.DAT.LOG drwx-- 8 marian users 4096 May 6 15:02 Netzwerkumgebung drwx-- 2 marian users 8192 May 6 15:02 Recent drwx-- 2 marian users 4096 May 6 15:02 SendTo drwx-- 3 marian users 4096 May 6 15:02 Startmen?? drwx-- 2 marian users 4096 May 6 15:02 Vorlagen -rw--- 1 marian users282 Jun 6 13:14 ntuser.ini Another odd thing, excpept for the fact that my profile is presented to whoever loggs in next, is the fact that it remains on the workstation (tested on Windows XP). I thought this could be changed by csc policy = disable but it obviously doesn't help. And for something else: When I log in as local Administrator after I logged in as domain user marian, then open the user profiles dialog of the system settings, I don't see the profile KISD\marian (as it should be named) but KISD\ab. Isn't this mysterious? I start wondering if something in the name resolution is totally mixed up, if SIDs are mingled up or whatever.

okok. Before anybody spends any more time on my problems, pardon me. I just found out that all sambaSIDs in our LDAP directory are the same. Yes, the same. Sorry, and thanks again!

[Samba] Roaming Profile Mix-Up Between Users
Hi! We are having some trouble after migrating from an NT4 domain controller to Samba 3: When there is no local copy of any profile on a workstation, a user can log in and his profile is copied from the server. When a second user logs in to the same workstation after the first one logged out, he sees the profile of the first one. That is, he actually used it. His profile isn't even read from the server. What could be the reason for this? We have both WinXP and Win2000 workstations. Users where able to use their roaming profile on both systems back when we used the NT PDC and we would like them to so with the Samba PDC. We hold user data in an LDAP backend. Thanks!

Marian Hi, roaming Profiles in a mixed setup of win xp and 2000 server will get you in failures ,dont do this ( or mess with profile bugs ). Try to upgrade all clients to xp with a nearly equal software install, and patch level. ( this is a windows issue not related to samba anyway ) Behavior of profiles is very different in win versions, you can control that by group policies or/and adm files and poledit ( not really related to samba ) Your described bug seems to me that you havent include the right parameters in your profile shares. I recommend to read the samba faqs about profiles and read technet for using roaming profiles with adms etc. There is no Problem having the right things in the right place using roaming profiles with win clients but its sometimes heavy to setup , but as i said before this is not really samba related here is an example profile share [profiles] path = /var/lib/samba/profiles vfs objects = vscan-clamav, extd_audit read only = no create mask = 0755 directory mask = 0755 browseable = No guest ok = Yes profile acls = yes csc policy = disable force user = %U hide files = /desktop.ini/ntuser.ini/NTUSER.*/ locking = No oplocks = False level2 oplocks = False valid users = %U, @Domain Admins Best Regards -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

I've never had that problem so far with an installation that started in 2000 with samba 2.x and all windows 2000, now has an additional 4 or 5 WinXP users and samba 3.x. Perhaps it's because we aren't using LDAP? -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
