Please, please help me.
I am running RH6.2, Samba 2.2.4 and Windows XP (with sign seal patch). Samba
is my PDC.
I want to use roaming profiles and it nearly works except for something
really strange.
When I logon to the Domain as a user and make changes to files etc and then
log out it updates my roaming profile
perfectly on the server. As the same user if I logon to another machine it
also loads this update profile - perfect. However, when I logon as that user
to its OWN PC (every username also has its own computername) it only opens
the LOCAL profile and never,ever the roaming profile. I look at the account
set up in Windows and it says its using roaming - but it isn't. I have
spent ages trying to sort this one out.
Not one to be just a taker - I was having other problems recently with file
security. But that was because I upgraded from 95 -98 -XP and had stayed on
Fat32. I was able to convert to NTFS but using cmd and convert. Just
thought that may help others.
add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null -g 100 -s
/bin/false -M %u
logon script = test.bat
logon path = \\%L\profiles\%u
logon drive = m:
logon home = \\%L\profiles\%u
domain logons = Yes
os level = 64
preferred master = True
domain master = True
wins support = Yes
[netlogon]
comment = netlogon share
path = /netlogon
guest account browseable = No
[profiles]
path = /profiles/%u
read only = No
create mask = 0700
directory mask = 0700
guest ok = Yes
Also, something weird that I cannot figure out. On my /profiles directory I
have 2 sub directories to et to my user profile. Example, username
intramgrs profile is on linux as /profiles/intramgr/intramgr. When I delete
intramgr completely then it will not create a new profile on the server as
it says the file/directory doesn't exist. Then I manually mkdir and get
this /profiles/intramgr/intramgr result.
Has anyone any bright ideas? Please, please help.
