I know it's a Windows-question, maybe can anyone help me too. I have samba 2.2.1a and W2K-SP1. Profiles are stored in /samba/profiles. The clients have no restrictions. Now I create special restrictions with "gpedit.msc" (NTUSER.DAT) for some users and copy it to /samba/profiles/%U (and rename to NTUSER.MAN). But after login, the local profile are not overwritten from the serverlocated profile ? I don't understand how profiles work ??? Best regards Sebastian
