[Samba] Samba4 roaming profiles & ownership of profile.V2 folders
I've got roaming profiles for one account on a Debian/Jessie AD DC server but I can't get them to work for the other accounts. The differences are that the one account is also a Linux account in the AD DC and is in the Domain Admins group. The other accounts were created with ADUC on a Windows 7 machine logged in as the Domain Admins user just mentioned. They are Domain Users but not Admins and have no corresponding Linux account. I got that one account to work by taking ownership of its profile directory. However Windows 7 currently only offers me two choices for accounts that can take ownership of a profile directory (Domain Admins and that one account are both listed. Other accounts are not in the creator/owner tab). I've given Domain User full control of the profile folders but that doesn't seem to be good enough to get the profiles to be loaded and saved (the Linux permissions are 777). And yes, Ive set profile for each user using the Windows MMC plugin. Any ideas on what I'm missing?
