Windows 2k Authentication troubles (profile logins?)
I've been unable to find any searching site for this mailing list, if anyone
can point me at one, that would be fantastic, thanks!
Okay, the question.  I have a windows 2000 machine setup with NCD's NIS
login
which is a neat little tool that allows users to authenticate against a NIS
server, and if that user does not have a local account it automatically
creates one, setting up profile locations and the like.
So when I login to my machine with a user pointing a profile at a samba share
I get "You do not have premission to access your centrol profile located at
\\db2\henrich\.winprofile"
However, I can then map \\db2\henrich\.winprofile with no problems
what-so-ever.  Looking at the samba log, it appears to be using two different
types of mount requests?

Any suggestions are greatfully welcome, Thanks!
