Hello. First Post so bare with me. We are running Samba as a domain server with roaming profiles. Recently we have started adding windows 2000 Pro machines into The mix of things. Now it seems that the users who use both the 2000 pc and then the NT4 pc start to receive a "Protected Storage" error. From what I have found this is a windows problem that is caused due to the roaming profile from a window nt to a windows 2000 pc. According to Microsoft this can be resolved by simply turning off the Auto Complete ,in Internet Explorer, for forms. I have done this fix and the problem remains.>From the users standpoint: After login upon running Outlook ExpressA "Protected Storage" box opens asking for the Windows Password. The dialog will not accept any password given. If the user hits Cancel 10-100 times the box will go away and all email is then received. Outlook Express is also not retaining the users password. Any help on this Matter would be very helpful. Thanks Joe

[Samba] Windows 2000 Pro and Windows NT Protected Storage
Hi Joe, I solved this by deactivating the Service "Protected Storage". G?tz
I would think that this would then not allow Outlook Express to Save the users password. I did try it anyways (killed the service) but it does not seem To resolve my issue. So do I need to re-build the corrupted profiles? And how do I avoid this issue in the future? I have users going Back and forth from winnt to win2k machines.
