[Samba] User folder automatic creation - should use skel, but no
Hi, I am testing Samba 4.1.4 Sernet packages on Ubuntu 12.04 to replace our old Samba 3.x server. I edited pam common-session file and added '<https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setting_up_a_home_share>session required pam_mkhomedir.so skel=/etc/skel/ umask=0027' just before pam_unix.so and pam_sss.so. If I shell-login on the server it create its homedir as expected using /etc/skel with the correct umask. But when I login on Windows it creates its homedir and profile folder without copying /etc/skel nor honoring umask. I assume Samba is creating the user's folder /before/ pam, and thus not using skel, is this correct? What's wrong and how can I fix this?

Windows logon is completely separate from Unix logon and does not use PAM at all. So yes, it's done by samba itself.
