Hello, I have a question about profiles setting on a second server.

Dear all, I am using Ubuntu 8.04 Server 64-bit edition and I am trying to enforce Local profile for all users and below is my smb.conf file. According to the samba documentation, leaving the logon home and logon path values to empty will enforce local profiles, it worked. But, my main requirement is when users login their home directories are mapped and they appear in My Computer window so they

Hey geeks, I have been reading several faqs and howtos now and haven't come very far with what I really wanted to accomplish: I have installed samba from the RH 7.2 distro rpm. I have set it up so I can access my windows shares on the linux mashine. I can "ping athlon" (which is the netbios-name for the win2k mashine) I can "ping linux" (which is obviously my

Does the following setup have any chance of ever working without to many problems? Our mix of ~ 40 workstations (win98se & xp pro) get the home drive mapped in the netlogon script when connecting into the domain for win9x net use h: \\linux\homes for win xp net use h: \\linux\homes /persistent:no relevant sections of our redhat 7.3 w/ samba 2.2.8 smb.conf are: [global] ;; server name

Hello, I've just been exploring Samba again after some time, and this time I'm setting a Samba PDC with LDAP. Thanks for great tutorial from Samba website, I think I got it working fine :) However, I've been browsing the list too, and am a bit confused with the term: 'homedir' and 'roaming profiles'. Is it different? If I'm not mistaken, homedir is for Win9X

When exactly did the samba meaning/returns for "logon path" and "logon home" change? (at which version?) We used to have a system that appeared to be working well and it was as follows logon script = logon.bat logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U logon drive = h: logon home = \\%L\%U\.profile domain logons = Yes and the [profiles] share had the following [profiles]

I have sucessfully got a windows 2K machine to join the domain but I can not get it to run a logon script, map the drive letter to the home directory or create a roaming profile. All my smb.conf setting look correct as per the samples and How To's so I'm stuck! smb.conf is as follows: # Global parameters [global] workgroup = LINUX netbios name = LINUX1 server string = Samba Server

Hi there, first of all I want to thank everybody who gave me good advise so far ;-). Now it's the first time I can give advise, and I'm quite glad that I can start giving insted of only taking now :-) ! Hi Petr, Yes, I have solved my general problems as follows: First of all you have to check your firewall settings, because that was the major problem on my system. On RH 7.2 the

Hi folks, I installed a new samba-PDC-server (dual athlon, raid,...) with Redhat 9++ and samba 2.2.8a from rawhide. I copied all (?) configfiles (/etc/samba/*) from my old server an adjusted some shares. The old server (RH 8, Samba 2.2.6, single PIII) was working for a couple of month without a probelm; I could create mashineaccounts on the fly from windows 2K and XP Pro, profiles and

Howdy All, I have read with interest the problems that some people have with profiles and XP ( service pack 2 included ) in getting them to work. I, however, have not had any such trauma's ( thank goodness) and the smb.conf file listed below works a treat. The problem I have is people using profiles over several vpn connections ( just to slow ). So now I am in the situation of wanting to turn

Hi everyone, I am new to the list and new to Linux as well as to Samba. I've read quite a few howtos, man-pages and other docs on samba now. I configured my own SMB-server with smbd and nmbd. Of course I generated a smb.conf file and my server is accessible and running on the Linux mashine. I can connect with smbclient to the Linux-mashine and to the win2k-mashine (hostname and service

Hi all, I would like to set the following configuration : - A Samba / LDAP PDC (name : rivest). - A NFS / Samba filer (name : brahms). Brahms is a member of my domain.

Hi All, I have recently successfully configured Samba 3.3.15 and OpenLDAP as my offices PDC. I would like to disable the roaming profiles capability but it appears that no matter what I said, it is being ignored by Samba. First is my relevant snippet for the Logon Path and Logon Home being empty as described in the documentation. Then, following that, is my entire smb.conf -- please let me

Hi all, I have a problem with my PDC - BDC LDAP setup with roaming profiles. Both are in the same network. Both servers get the user homes and profiles from a NAS so they are always up to date. I configured to get the profiles and the homes from the logon server like logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U logon home = \\%L\%U The home directories work as expected. %L is translated to the logon
