I just went through the ordeal of renaming a Windows user account (from
the previous incumbent's name to the position title, so I won't have to
repeat this). Everything went smoothly. The account has access to the
programs and files that it previously did. The roaming profile is being
updated when the user logs out. The C:\user\president folder is
accessing and storing the local documents properly.
The only thing not working right is the home share isn't being mounted
as drive m:. They do map to drive m: for other user accounts so it's not
a samba smb.conf setting. The old windows user has the same sid as the
new one and the old unix user has the same user number as the new one. I
also checked /etc/group and changed any extra group memberships for that
user number.
I can see \\server\president in the Windows Explorer network but can't
open the folder. I get a "Windows cannot access" error in Windows
Explorer. I get a similar thing when I manually map drive m: to
\\server\president. When I log onto the same machine using another
account, the drive maps as expected and I can open that account's home
folder in the network section in Windows Explorer.
The only thing I can think of is that a Samba .tdb database must have
something or be missing something related to that user account's home
share. Any ideas?
