Hello,
If I understand it right you want to have the same Outlook profile for the
users
no matter on which workstation they login?
The first thing all user must have the same Version of Outlook!!!!! And use
an IMAP SERVER
Then you must work with prf files for outlook for eauch user in your
netlogon path of samba
I am working with kixstart. On sigining in each user get his pref file. You
can download files from
Microsoft.
Snipp of a prf-file outlook 2003, see section Account1 for settings.
Example, see Service1 for the
path of outlook.pst on my samba:
PathToPersonalFolders=\\tuepropdc\%USERNAME%\outlook\%USERNAME%.pst
;Automatically generated PRF file from the Microsoft Office Customization
and Installation Wizard

Other things you may want to do is to hold the Profile on the server without
copy to and from:
Look at this:

My kixkstart script:
;we redirect personal folder to the server
;we look at the registry if there isvalue that the folders has been
redirected
;zun?chst gibt es diesen Eintrag schon?
$RETURNCODE=EXISTKEY("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\tpdc")
;if not set it it in the registry
IF NOT $RETURNCODE=0
ADDKEY("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\tpdc")
;now if we set the above key we know it ist he first login and we set it.
Later on we will delete this key
ADDKEY("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\tpdc\FIRST_LOGIN")
ENDIF
;now if it ist he first login we have to do something
$RETURNCODE=EXISTKEY("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\tpdc\FIRST_LOGIN")
IF $RETURNCODE=0

IF NOT $RETURNCODE=0
;if there is a profile
IF EXIST("\\tpdc\@userID\@userID\profile")
copy "\\tpdc\@userID\@userID\profile\Eigene Dateien\*"
"\\tpdc\@userID\"
ENDIF
;nun setzen wir den hinweis das Eigene Dateien kopiert worden sind
ADDKEY("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\tpdc\profile_copied")
;set the redirected shell folders in the registry

For this to work you must have a policy for all your clients to not locally
cache profiles.
Happy trying

1. Do not store mail locally, you will lose mail if you do. Use a
central imap server for instance, it's also much easier for backups;
2. I set the user's desktop to readonly with cacls in the logon
scripts, problem solved (get yourself management's approval before you
try this, explain why it is necessary). If they do not want to listen
to you then ...
3. use folder redirection. This is harder to do in a pure samba 3
environment than in AD, but it is certainly doable. Soon, with samba 4
we will have all the group policy goodies :-)
