I've got a problem loading my roaming profile: client - win2k domain controllers - winnt server profile server - samba 2.0.3 I can log in OK, and the PDC tells the client go attach \\server\userid as my H: drive. That works, thus samba and the domain controller are properly exchanging info. the problem happens right at login though: i can't download my profile. Windows cannot copy \\server\userid\ntprofile.pds\(stuff...) to location c:\(stuff...). Contact your Network Administrator. DETAIL: Access is denied. This looks like samba isn't letting the server read my profile, which is odd since I have done a 'chmod -R a+rX ~' on my home dir. (and then i reset reasonable permissions on my .ssh and mail directories...) suggestions on where I go from here? what debugging info would people like to see?
