[Samba] moving roaming profiles from 1 server to another
hi all I'm trying to move a roaming profile directory structure from 1 server to another Server 1 - old server to be phased out Server 2 new server At moment, user home directories are on server 2 along with various applications Server 1 has an ldap database, servies the printing and stores the roaming profiles The idea is to phase everything onto Server 2 Looking at my samba book, the smb.conf entry logon path=<backslash><backslash>%L<backslash>profiles<backslash>%u is a UNC that is relative to the profiles share. Would a simple way of moving the storage of the roaming profiles be to create a profiles share on server 2 and then replace %L in the above statement on server 1 to be the hostname of Server 2 ... or do I have to set up an nfs mount from server 1 to server 2 that points to the appropriate directory and use that? BTW Samba 2.2.8a TIA Alex Sent using Mulberry 3.1.2
