Thanks Darpha,
I did that before i sent the mail. But my problem is strange..let me explain..
The computer existed before i installed the samba server..The user was using
the login as 'administrator' user, and had alot of stuff. Later on i
changed the 'administrator' login as the "user account name"
say tom, on the server. Now he logs on into his machine(no samba till now), as
'tom' but will be able to get/use the profile he created, when he was
logging in as "administrator".
Later on i installed the samba server for domain logon with local profile. I
disabled roaming profile for both windows 9x, 2000, Xp machines by setting
logon path logon home
Even then when he logs in as 'tom' to join the domain, instead of using
the local profile(which was as "administrator" b4, later on
'tom', its creating a temporary localprofile.
I would like to know the simple solution for this. How should i handle this

Subject: R: [Samba] Windows 2K roaming profiles
You have two way I think. One is to manually copy the local profile to the
server. The second is to disable roaming profile. I' ve done this yesterday
beacuse I don't have too much space on my server and because leaving
profiles on the server take quite a long time at shutdown to synchronize server
and client temporary profile. To disable the roaming profile just put this line
:
logon path
Remember to not comment out this line. In fact the roaming profiles are enabled
by default, If you whish to disable 'em just use the line above.
Hope it helps. Bye, Samuele.

Oggetto: [Samba] Windows 2K roaming profiles
Hi all,
I have a problem regarding profiles.
One of the users had a widows 2k machine which he is using for a long time. I
have installed samba as the domain logon server with roaming profiles. The
problem is when the user logs on to the server, since he doent have a profile
yet on the server, a temporary profile is copied in the local machine when he
logs on and sent to the server. I dont want this behaviour as he already have
lots of settings on his machine.
Is there anyway to disable roaming profiles on windows2k so that it will logon
to the server but will get local profiles instead..or a way to copy already
existing profiles to the server...
Thanks
