samba - Nov 2019 - Roaming profile not syncing with the server

Hi all,

An user queried whether the error "Your profile was not synchronised 
with the server" was a big problem, so I had a look into it.? This only 
happens on one computer, all non-admin users has this problem, the Samba 
admin account don't have this problem.? Looking into the windows error 
log, we get plenty of messages of the below:

Looking up error 1504, there's plenty of references to a bug in Windows 
version 1803, however the problem computer has Windows version 1903.? 
Last time I had this problem on a different computer, Rowland linked me 
to an issue with an "TEMP" folder in the c:\users folder causing 
synchronisation problems, however the offending folder is absent on this 
computer.? Looking at the log, this has been going on for about a month.

Any ideas how I can fix this please?

Many thanks for your time!

With kind regards - Piers

Hai, 

If Adminstrator works, and the users not, then your rights setup is just
incorrect.
I suggest setup as show. 
[profiles]
    browseable = yes
    path = /your_path_too/profiles
    read only = no
    acl_xattr:ignore system acl = yes

Restart samba 
Then read :
Read :
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Roaming_Windows_User_Profiles#The_Windows_Roaming_Profile_Versions

And apply exactly as shown, that should work.

If not, show me the samba version and windows version. 
And smb.conf and getfact /path_to/profiles 


Greetz, 

Louis
