I have a problem with samba 2.2.7a which is configured as a PDC for two Windows XP Profesional workstations. I'am working with roaming profiles for the winxp machines. My problem is, when I reboot a winxp machine my roaming profile becomes a local profile. When I don't reboot the winxp machine roaming stays roaming. This is my smb.conf configuration. The linux machine is a ConnecTUX machine.
