I had a problem with a user whose My Documents file (as well as his mail file) is enormous. The samba PDC tried to replicate his profile to the server and failed. Subsequently, winlogon deleted his documents (a bad day for linux advocacy). I need to either: 1. Implement some kind of filter, so that the PDC will skip certain subdirectories while updating the profile. 2. Disable roaming profiles (which are impractical for us anyway) I'd deeply appreciate any help you can give me.

Disable roaming profiles (which are impractical for us anyway)If its a 2k or XP workstation, disabling roaming profiles at the workstation is easy. I'd like to disable roaming profiles at the server though, does anyone know how to do that? -- David W.
