[Samba] PDC will create new roaming profiles but fails to load them on subsequent logons
Hello,
I'm running Samba Version 3.4.7 on Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS. I'm using Samba
as
the Primary Domain Controller.
Things that work:
- Clients can logon
- I can run logon scripts
- Roaming profiles are created for new users on logon
However, when I try to logon again with the same user, I invariably get this
error message:
"Your roaming profile is not available. You are logged on with the locally
stored profile. Changes to the profiles will not be copied to the server.
Possible causes of this error include network problems or
insufficient security rights. If this problem persists, contact your
network administrator.
DETAIL - Access is denied."
Below is a snippet of my config. I'm trying to show only relevant settings;
please ask for more if I've left out something important:
[global]
## Authentication ##
encrypt passwords = true
obey pam restrictions = Yes
passdb backend = tdbsam
security = user
## Domains ##
domain logons = Yes
domain master = Yes
local master = yes
logon drive = H:
logon home = \\%N\%U
logon path = \\%N\profiles\%U
logon script = %U.bat
os level = 65
preferred master = Yes
root preexec = /usr/local/bin/logon-generator.sh %U
[netlogon]
comment = Network Logon Service
guest ok = yes
path = /home/samba/netlogon
read only = yes
share modes = no
[profiles]
browseable = No
comment = Users profiles
create mask = 0600
directory mask = 0700
guest ok = Yes
path = /home/samba/profiles
profile acls = yes
writable = yes
The permissions on /home/samba/profiles are 777. The permissions on any
directory that Samba creates in this share are 700.
Thanks for your help,
-Frank
