I have a sambaserver running as PDC for a smaller windows domain. Because of growing inbox'es I believe roaming profiles in time will not be a good solution, so instead I want the profile dir for the domain users to permanently reside on a samba share. Is it not advisable to do that? I guess it will introduce problems if a user logs on from more than one client at the same time. However that would probably also mess up roaming profiles being copied forth and back. If I understand it correctly, I need to: *) Disable roaming profiles (to stop clients from copying profile dir forth and back) * )Somehow assign the profile dir to be \\%LOGONSERVER%\Profiles\%USERNAME% Would it be possible to accomplish this using a logon script? -- mvh Torbj?rn Lindahl

It is discussed in the howto docs at some length. Unless you can push it out via a reg file that is executed in a login script, it will require some manual intervention. I believe NT Policies can also help with deployment, if you're into that. -- -- Paul Gienger Office: 701-281-1884 Applied Engineering Inc.
