Re: [Samba] samba 4 questions (status, roaming profiles, etc)
So I tried a new user, and it didn't work, so I debugged a little and discovered that I was missing a \ when I changed from setting the profile path per-user to setting it via group policy. After fixing that, my profile folders were automatically recreated on the server, and windows attempted to copy my local profile over. It copied a bunch of stuff, but started failing with a bunch of The specified network name is no longer available errors. When I logged back in I got the message telling me it was using my local copy, which is fine since the server copy is incomplete, but in the event viewer I saw this: Windows cannot locate the server copy of your roaming profile and is attempting to log you on with your local profile. Changes to the profile will not be copied to the server when you log off. This error may be caused by network problems or insufficient security rights. DETAIL - The program issued a command but the command length is incorrect. I have seen that command length error fairly often recently. I have no idea what causes it, and the web isn't being very helpful. I got the same error when opening the group policy management app just now. Anyone know how to debug this? -Aaron On 8/25/2010 2:57 AM, Daniel_Müller wrote: First of all try with a new user to be shure your setup of profiles is working.

My issue is that the profile was there, but somehow corrupted, so I moved it out of the way. Now windows is not recreating it, but just complaining that it can't find it. I need a way to make the samba or windows (which ever is the problem) think the roaming profile should be created from scratch. -Aaron On 8/24/2010 10:33 AM, Daniel_Müller wrote: Make profiles ready in windows7: In your smb.conf: [profiles] path= /yourprofilepath/profiles read only= no mkdir /yourprofilepath/profiles On your windows client start Active Directory Users and Comupters.
