[Samba] How to enforce the client to download the profile from the server
Thanks a lot for your help. The problem is partially solved. However, for the Samba Server not to overwrite the profile, I have to delete the exclusion list every time I logout from the client, i.e. ntuser.ini is being written back to the server every time i logout with the same Exclusion List, although I changed it before login in. Could you please tell me where can i change settings (may be default user on Samba Server?) so i won't get the same ntuser.ini written to the server every time i logout. Thanks you in advance!
