Re: [Samba] Windows XP login
To me, that means that the Windows default profile has this set in it. Once it is set on a user's profile, it will need to be reset for each user. It's not uncommon for a system administrator to configure the an account the way they want it, then copy that users' profile to the Default Profile (typically under C:\Documents and Settings\Default User, to see it Hidden files/folders need to be visible). For a domain-wide default profile, it can be located at \\domain-controller\netlogon\Default User. One way to modify it is to create a temp user with administrative privileges, login as the temp user to get the Default Profile and modify the settings. Log off as that user, then logon as an different administrative user. Then use the profile copy tool (Control Panel, System, Advanced, User Profiles Settings, copy the Temp Users'profile to C:\Documents and Settings\Default User (per workstation) or \\domain-controller\netlogon\Default User (per domain). This only fixes it for new users, or if you're doing mandatory profiles.

Re: [Samba] Windows XP login
In a Windows environment, the visibility of that file is dependent upon the client view option "Hide protected operating system files (Recommended)", which controls view of files with the system flag set. This is set on a per user basis. Hope this helps!

Nor have I. It is a problem with windows clients on W2Kx domains as well. It also seems it might be tied to the clients view files and folder settings, however I have not tested that variable. But it's such a trivial issue I haven't really done much to solve outside of hiding files etc. Cheers, -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
