I've been browsing the archive and googling for something like 3 days now and still haven't found where the problem is. Here the situation: Samba 2.2.8a acting as a PDC Some Win2kSP3 clients The problem: When a user logon for the first time, a cache profile is created locally, when he logoff, that profile is saved on the PDC. It's working as expected. The problem arise when the

Hi, i recently decided to try samba as a PDC for my little home network (5 PCs). So far everything is working fine, there's only a little problem with my roaming profile.

Hi I've got a samba pdc set up but I've got a strange problem. Everything works fine I can login with the roaming profile BUT I also need a local profile, without the local profile he says that he cannot find the domain name.

Hello All, I have a problem with my roaming profiles where they are becoming too large due to the Thunderbird mail accounts (stored by default) in Application Data. What I would like to do is exclude this directory from being part of the roaming profile. How can I do this? Also, how hard is it to have some users not use a roaming profile but others continuing to use a roaming profile? We

Hi, I am using VMware to test Samba 3.0.0 (running in VMware) with Windows 2000 Server (running in VMware). My Samba 3.0.0 is running as PDC and I manage to configure Windows 2000 Server to join to Samba 3.0.0 but when I logoff from the domain, there is an error stating that it can't copy a particular file to \\Samba-pdc\profiles\user1\Application Data\VMware\filename.dat Regards, ro0ot

Hello, I would like to host our Terminal Services and Roaming Profiles on a Samba 3.0.2 server. I am able to have profiles created correctly for any user except those who are listed as 'admin users' - currently our Domain Admins group as '@DOMAIN-Domain Admins'. What happens is that a profile is created with the actual owner as root and an ACL entry for the actual user. For

Maybe this is not the right place but i'm still having trouble with synchronisation. Samba 3.0.14 as pdc. I used gpedit.msc to tell the computer not to sync Documents ( i used the italian name Documenti, since my windowsxp is in italian ) on login/logout. I mapped documents using regedit on drive z: (i.e. the roaming profile on the samba server), but when i logout i have been still seeing

Hi, I had searched long for the problem of only partially sync'd profiles on Windows 7/8 . Windows XP has worked fine. There was always the error "Your roaming profile is not synchronized correctly with the server. You have been logged in with a partially synchronized profile". The application protocol of windows told me that the file

Yes, it was maybe a sync trouble. But after some trying i realized it was not a good way for two reasons: At the end windows xp tried to sync the folders loosing as much time as with the usual roaming profile; Disabling the sync i used to loose something anyway. So now i'm looking up a new solution: activated the 'use only local profile' in the gpedit.msc config tool, so the client

ok.. at first i thought this is nice but i seem (still) don't know how to control things so i decided not to use roaming profiles... i disabled it and some of the workstations is now using their local profiles (winNT and winXP) but i have still problems with windows 2000 ... it kept on contacting the server for the profile.. i can't find how to disable the roaming profile in win2k i

PDC : RedHat 7.2 // Samba 2.2.4 RedHat rpm Clients : W2K SP1 Does anybody know how to get rid of the cached local profiles when logging off? Since we use FAT32 every user has access to other local replicated profiles. Furthermore sometimes the logon to the domain doesn?t work the first time after logon after a cold start. W2k claims it can not replicate/copy some files from the users profile and

Hello, I have a problem with Samba 2.2.5 and Win XP roaming profiles. All works fine. XP load the profile from the server at login and stores them on the server at log out. But if the user logs in twice, XP does not load the profile from the server, it uses its local profile also if the profile on the server is newer. After a reboot XP loads the server profile once again. If I disable local

Hooked to the test machine its fine, but when I put in on the 3 machine network it did a few weird things: 1: Changed my Main User Profile on Machine #1 to what looks like a default profile. and When I login there no previous username in the Logon Box.

Our floater secretaries roam around the office constantly. Recently they've complained that they only get a temporary profile and a warning that their romaing profile is unavailable when they move from one station to another within a few minutes. Looking into this I found that files in their profile remain locked after they had logged out and even shut down the workstation they were on. I
