Hello, we have recently installed Samba 2.2.2 on our Unix server that contains all of our users home directories. We have changed all of our Windows user accounts so that when they log in, their home directories from the Unix server is mapped as their H: drive. This works fine when a user logs in, but if they log off and immediately log back in their home drive is not automatically mapped. After more research we found that the connection/process on the Unix Samba server is not closed until about 60 seconds after they log out of the workstation and if they try to log back in before this connection is closed it does not work. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Below is the smb.conf of the server as well as the entry we see in the log file when the connection is finally broken. Thank you for your interest and time.
