[Samba] Windows client still tries to connect to old AD after replacement
Rowland,> Did you click on the hyperlink that would have taken you here: > > https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setting_up_a_Share_Using_Windows_ACLsI see... muddling through this, I seem to have somehow fixed this by following the POSIX ACL instructions, but not completely fixed. It has got to the stage where if I create a new user (called testuser) and assign their roaming profile & home folder, it works fine, I can create/delete files, no more issues with log-in. However, "new" users with existing folders carried forward from the old server still have permission issues - existing users can access the root of their profile & home folders, create folders and delete them, but cannot access or modify existing folders. So I presume the existing folders have all the wrong permissions, and I need to propogate the permissions from the user's root folder to the existing folders/subfolders - what's the best way to do this? Secondly, I've spotted that I also need to do folder redirections as directed here: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Configuring_Windows_Profile_Folder_Redirections I was able to do it for the testuser's "Documents" folder successfully, however the other folders I tried to redirect (Music & Videos) didn't have the "Redirect to the user's home directory" option - how do I sort this out? Finally, you're certainly a font of knowledge! Many thanks for your time. With kind regards - Piers
