I'm having a problem wtih 2.2.6pre2 that I seem unable to resolve. When logging out of my Win2K SP3 machine, I receive the error "Windows cannot update the roaming profile.

I'm running Windows 2000 Professional and Samba 3.0.1 and I can't seem to get roaming profiles to work right. When there are no profiles stored locally on the win2k machine, and a user logs in for the first time, it successfully reads the profile from the server in the \\netlogon\Default User share. Next, if you manually copy the profile to server and login to the workstation, it

Hi guys, I'm experiencing seemingly random problems using roaming profiles with Samba 3.0.2 on Debian Woody and clients being Win XP Pro and Win2K (all of them running the latest service packs and critical updates and so forth). Sometimes when one of the machines tires to login the server profile can't be found. The error Windows comes up with is "Network name cannot be found."

Hi there! I have a Samba 2.2.2 PDC on linux 2.4.13 with ACL (acl.bestbits.at) support installed. There seems to be a problem with Roaming Profiles. Win2k with local NTFS filesystem will never delete roaming profiles (yes, I have regedited the DeleteRoamingCache to 1). In fact, any time TheUser logs back in, a new folder named TheUser.OURDOMAIN.??? (where ? is an integer) will be created,

I have Samba 3 running on gentoo as a pdc. I read in someone's forum posting to try enabling acls and that didn't seem to do much good. I can get the computers to be added to the domain using their smb username/passwords and when they login, the correct shares corresponding to their users map perfectly; however, my biggest problem is when they do login it says the following: Windows

Hi, I'd like to ask you what do you limit Desktops syncing in case users put large files on them, e.g. films. Downloading / uploading such large files can generate lots of unnecessary traffic.

Hi everybody, after many weeks of searching/trying, I still can't manage to get vista to use/save roaming profiles with samba as PDC... It has apparently worked a few times in the beginning since the profiles directories are populated. Could it be related to a Vista update or SP1? Here's what I did so far: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System]

I have a samba 2.2.4 PDC which acts as the repository of roaming profiles. Just recently some of our users have experienced failure to load roaming profiles. The clients are on a pair of Windows 2000 terminal servers. The failure does not seem to be confined to one server and only affects some people. The error given takes place during the loading profile stage: Windows can not copy: \\Samba

I have a linux box running samba configured as my PDC with roaming profiles. Everything was running great until I upgraded to WinXP instead of Win2K. Now, when I log out of my XP session, my profile doesn't get uploaded to the server. The local copy remains in effect until I reboot. When I log out, the following message gets sent to the event logger: [quote] Windows has detected that

Hi. Whups... Posted to wrong mailing list at first... but anyway... I am using Samba 2.2.6 with LDAP-support compiled in under RH7.3. (same happened with 2.2.5) I can logon from Win9x clients nicely to domain. I can usually join domain under Win2k-sp3. But I can't logon to domain. If I make local login to computer and then try to access shares, it works correctly. I can do logon to Linux
