[Samba] Eliminating "offline caching" events on XP workstatons?
Our XP SP1 (patched with everything but SP2) workstations are logging events like: "Windows has detected that offline caching is enabled on the roaming profile share - to avoid profile corruption (etc.)" Following some goodle threads this was added to smb.conf (attached) csc policy = disable but the event still occurs, although only when something has been saved to the profile before exiting. For instance, toggling the start menu into or out of "classic" mode. Samba 3.0.6 Even with the event message it does seem to work ok.
