[Samba] Samba PDC for Win2k and WinXP Pro
I have samba 2.2.7 running on a RedHat Linux 7.3 system that is being used as a PDC and a file server for a group of Windows 2k and Windows XP Pro computers. I am having a problem with the roaming profiles working on both the 2k and XP machines. The profiles seem to load fine when you log on, but when you log off it will only copy the ntuser.dat file and then a few more files (seems to go to different points each time) and then it will pop up an error message about not being able to copy the roaming profile to the server. The 2k computers are on SP3 and the XPs are on SP1. I have read the problems posted and tried every different fix to solve the problem with no success (one of these is the group policy settings change that Microsoft suggested). Here is a copy of my smb.conf file. I don't have winbind running, can it help (No logins ever made to this Linux box except for system changes like these)? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
