Hello. I've configured roaming profiles on my server. But they are working
very strange. When I log in from a Windows XP machine with the user
'test' I get an error message saying that the machine can't find a
server copy of my roaming profile and is logging on using the default local
profile. In details it says that the network name cannot be found. But after
logging in and after creating a file (for example on the desktop) and after
logging out the file can still be found on the server in /home/test/Desktop/. If
I log in again I get the same error message. But the file is still there. So
it's loading from the server. What's wrong?
I've configured the Default User profile and copied it to the
/usr/local/etc/netlogon/ directory. Also all the local profiles are deleted on
logout.
Here's a copy of my smb.conf file (i've cut some parts out):
[global]
workgroup = CTMTEST
netbios name = ANTONV
server string = Test Samba Server
interfaces = xl0
security = user
hosts allow = 10.0.0. 127.

logon home = \\%L\Profiles\%U
logon drive = P:

At least that is what fixed the problem for me. John
