search for: userhome

Hey, has anyone on the list experienced the following behavior ? When \\server\userhome <\\server\userhome> is specified as the "home folder" in the AD user profile, XP takes a long time to open up "my computer" But when \\server\userhome <\\server\userhome> is mapped via a netlogon script, XP opens "my computer" quickly I've searched...

Hi there, I'm trying to let dovecot generate the userhome directory dynamicly via user_attr. If "uid" is returned from LDAP before "mail" everything is fine, but if "mail" is delivered before "uid" the localpart of the mailaddress is used in home path. e.g.: Mail: testuser at domain.de UID : test123 sometimes ho...

Hello, dovecot-1.1.7 on FreeBSD 7.1. Usernames have dot in them (like uname.example for a user in example.com). in dovecot.conf I have: mail_location: maildir:/userhomes/maildirs/%d/%n/Maildir and for authentication: username_format: %Ln In the client, tried with CONE and Mail.app, I put the username as: uname.example at example.com So, the authentication works fine, as it extracts the uname.example from the uname.example at example.com supplied. The ma...

Hey there, Just a question for you Samba 2.2.x gurus out there :) We have a contingent (a steadily increasing contingent) of Win2K and WinXP workstations. Does anyone here know how to stop the profiles from replicating? If we create a file in the profile dir, say \\PDC\UserHome\profile.doc. It will replicate that to the profile directory, while one file or two files are not a problem, we use classroom based logins, so they all login at once and it's transferring the whole \\PDC\UserHome dir around everywhere it goes, it does it when you login and logout, so if everyon...

...e a communal Linux system that is operating in a primarily Windows group, and I want to give each user access to their windows home directory. The windows sysadm has set up the home directories on a Windows NT server. The problem is that all of the home directories are within a single share "UserHomes". The win2k clients have no problem mapping the folder (e.g. //server/userhomes/myuser) to a drive, and I would like to be able to do that with autofs and samba. Right now, the best I can do is to map the whole share each time: ==auto.master== /windows /etc/auto.windows -t 300 #...

Hi, I have installed Puppet puppet-0.23.2-1.el4 & puppet-server-0.23.2-1.el4. Now trying to configure. I have a basic config which changes the sudo permission of the file. Currently I am using the puppet server as client. Now I wanted to add all my hosts some linux some unix. So was looking for a config syntax whioh can create groups. Like IT = [ host-1, host2, shost3 ]

thanks for the answer, Louis. i m talking about the userhome dir. I ve already read https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/User_Home_Folders and i m applying the posix acls to my share. As the users's home is shared between windows and linux, i d rather use the posix acls than the windows ones. Beside the homedir of my users have a form like /home/ first le...

...4). My question is this. I know that I can, by massaging /etc/pam.d files manually, have Winbind/Samba automatically create a home directory for each user that logs in, but I am wondering if Samba/Winbind can instead map to their home directory as defined in their Windows profile (\\mywindowsbox\userhome) ?

...\\SERVER\homes All Users Home \\SERVER\home Home Directory \\SERVER\user Home Directory Seems ok so far. But the problem: on my XP client, accessing gives this server path: \\server\homes -> \home\userhome \\server\home -> "empty" \\server\%U -> \home\userhome For some reason "my share named "/homes" is mapping me to my user directory, while /home maps to "nada?" I'm guessing maybe "/homes" is a special name reserved for user h...

...sed when the user logsoff. I'm lost in finding a solution for this as most "Can't find profile errors" are based on usernames or whatever don't exist on Linux, but this is all good and works. What I have changed in the config is that all Paths that you can redirect to the userhome using a NTConfig.pol are set to the server and after this, this problem started. I hope someone can help out.

If you use windows ADUC, i do recommend to this on Win7PC. Because thats the only way (for now) that automaticly sets the last used UID/GID +1 for the next user. - Create user in ADUC - If backend AD is used (as your do) set UID/GID and Homedir (the linux path) and shell - Now add userHome and userProfile in ADUC. \\server.fqdn\users\%username% \\server.fqdn\profiles\%username% The user homedir is now created. (when you klik Apply/Ok) The user profiles will be created when you logout a PC. I hope that helps a bit. But yes, a full setup without windows tools, is wha...
