Is 'net use x: /home' deprecated nowadays? I just upgraded a very old
Samba 2 to 3.2.8 and suddenly no workstations at all can use that command to map
to their home directories.
Workstations are W2k, Win XP and Vista in a mix. Neither work.
Samba use LDAP as back end, and the related posts in smb.conf are these:
logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U\.msprofile
logon script = login.bat
logon home = \\%L\%U\.9xprofile
logon drive = J:
[homes]
comment = Home
valid users = %S, %D%w%S
browseable = no
read only = No
inherit acls = Yes
guest ok = no
printable = no
Ideas are welcome!
Anders.
