samba - Nov 2008 - WG: Samba 3.0.28a PDC and Vista Clients

Did you have profile files written?
With Xp it is profiles.V2.
I made my profile-path reside in the home directories of the users
And it worked on the fly
Ex:
[homes]
path=/windows/winuser/%U

[profiles]
path=/windows/winuser/%U/profile

Greetings
Daniel

Betreff: [Samba] Samba 3.0.28a PDC and Vista Clients

I'm trying to get my samba PDC to work with Vista clients.  I'm thinking
it's because of NTLMv2.  I would rather not disable that on the clients
if
possible.  I tried:

 

client ntlmv2 auth = yes

 

in the config file but that didn't work.  I can login to the domain but
it
doesn't see my profile.  But I know it works because after I'm logged in
I
navigate to my profile path and I can write/delete to that directory.


Any ideas?  Do I need more in my smb.conf?  Thanks for your help.

Ok I think I figured out what was going on.  Vista takes whatever is set for
your profile and looks for a .v2 after it.  So since I had my profile set in
LDAP as \\fileserver\profile$, it was looking for \\fileserver\profile$.v2.  So
I created a new share in my smb.conf and edited the other profile$ share.  So in
LDAP for each user I have \\fileserver\profile$ for the profile path, and this
is my smb.conf

[profile$.v2]
        comment = User profiles Vista
        path = /opt/domain/homes/%U/profile/vista
        read only = no

[profile$]
        comment = User profiles XP/2000
        path = /opt/domain/homes/%U/profile/xp
        read only = no



Thanks for your help, I hope this helps someone!
