I have a Samba server which I set so that Windows clients have roaming profiles. It works but when the user logs off, his personal folder in C:\Documents and Settings remains there, although i created the key DeleteRoamingCache (as a DWORD) in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\WinLogon and set it to 1. It seems a problem with the Windows client, but I'm not

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,

Hello, If you don?t want (Who wants ?) to save roaming profiles under Winnt\Profiles, than you have to change, or create (if not exist) a registry string: Run regedt32.exe and locate the key entry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Microsoft\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon Add (or change) the following string: DeleteRoamingCache Standard value is 0, it has to be 1 All the Best. --

Hello! I know that this is not samba related, but may be some one knows a quick answer: When using profiles, stored on a well running samba-2.0.0beta2 PDC, the NT PC's cache the profile during a user session. As this profile is not deleted on the PC and we have a lot of users with only few PC's we need a lot of diskspace for this old profiles. Is there a way (Registry Key, ..) that

Hi experts, I encounter a serious problem using Roaming Profiles unter XP Prof. I don't know if this is realy a Samba issue, mybe someone has already solved the same problem. I am running Samba 2.2.5 as an PDC using LDAP. The first time I log on with user "tom", all looks perfect and a profile is downloaded from the Samba PDC, say into D:\Documents and Settings\tom. Then I log out

After being content with an old laptop running XP for years, my job decided to provide me with a shiny new one running Windows 7 Professional. The biggest problem with this is that I can't get the Windows 7 box to login to my Samba NT4-style domain controller. I have upgraded samba from 3.0.33 to 3.6.23, and copied my smbpasswd file to where the new samba expects to find it in

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 all I hope you can help with the following problem I am tryint to keep win98 and Win2K profiles seperate in a users home directory and at the same time be able to use net use /HOME. I cannot do it. Is it possible? the more i test profiles the more confused i get. one situation is this logon home = \\%L\%U\ logon path = \\%L\%U\ntprofile The above config will store the nt profile

Thanks everyone for helping me get the home directories working over SMB, especially Ben Ford for his workaround for the Xauth and GDM. Now I've got a problem that, most likely, nobody's ever noticed before... or is something specific to me. I've got a Linux client, and a Samba server, and a Windows 2000 server, both set up EXACTLY the same. I've got a test user and the home

Hello all, I've run into an issue while migrating a client's Samba PDC from Debian 3.x to OpenSuSE 10.3, have been beating my head against it for over a week, and am now turning to the mailing list for help. We're running Samba 3.0.26a-3-1478-SUSE-SL10.3 authenticating against OpenLDAP 2.3.37. Integration of Samba and OpenLDAP works, and importing the 2000+ existing user accounts

I believe that once you have roaming profiles configured, all you need to do to configure folder redirection is set some registry keys. I'd like to turn that job over to our Windows sys admin. Can someone provide me with their favorite documentation for configuring folder redirection? Keep in mind I am passing this link along to a Windows sys admin. Our backend is samba 3.6.3 if it

Hi We're running Samba 2.2.7a as a PDC for Windows2000 SP2 Clients. Everthing works just fine, but there is one problem: The clients save their profiles on the PDC (~/.Profiles), but don't delete the local copy of the profile (C:\My Documents\$user). This causes a really big problem, since the client's HD's aren't that big and these profiles grow every day. Is there any way

Hi, I was wanting to know how to have profiles removed form Win2k Machines after they have logged off. Not sure if I have already asked this here, or just looked for the answer in the archives, either way I still don't know the answer :( Thanks for any help. Max.

Hi all, I've managed to install an ubuntu server as PDC, everything is working fine. However, i've got a few questions regarding profile ( M$ XP ) and unix accounts. 1. Roaming profile : I believed that when logging off a computer, user's profile was moved back to the server. But i can still find one. Is there anything to do for the profile not to be stored on pc ? 2. An account

Problem: ------- For sometime now, I have wanted to be able to rsync ACLs of files on windows machines to a Linux server. I never saw anyone post anything about how to make it work. I tried, but I was never able to compile on Cygwin when I patched the source with the acls.diff patch. ./configure would error out after displaying: Checking whether to support ACLS... checking for

I?ve got a 4.1.3 Samba PDC Server on Debian Wheezy. It?s running in Classic mode ? all existing clients are Windows XP Pro. I?m installing a Windows 7 Pro 64-bit PC, and have managed to join it to the domain, but can?t get the user?s login script to run. The login scripts work fine on XP. The pertinent sections of smb.conf contain: logon script = %U.bat logon drive = G: [netlogon] path =

Hi. my last post was about upscale configuration for my WinXP clients, because I believed I had it working, but ... Next day I booted the client and .... it wouldnt let me log onto the domain again. :-( I am using Samba 2.2.8a with Ldap backend which works great in workgroup mode. Joining the domain is very easy and works well, but then after rebooting I get: "Es kann keine
