similar to: [OT] Folder Redirection, Excluded Folders & Custom Default User

I seem to have solved the problem. While I had the 'wins' entry in /etc/nsswitch.conf of the samba machine, winbind wasn't installed, so it wasn't able to do a netbios lookup of the client machine. Since I fixed this problem, the 'not responding' problem didn't occur anymore. Greetings, Heiko 2008/8/10 Heiko Harders <heiko.harders@gmail.com>: > Hello, >

Heiko, I suggest you concentrate on the re-directed folders - not the roaming profile - because the roaming profile is copied to the local hard disc when you log on - so throughout your session it is locally stored. You might try un-directing your re-directed folders one at a time (over a period of a week) to see which one appears to be affecting performance. Regards, David Collins On Sun,

Hello all, I'm trying to get folder redirection working with roaming profiles and Samba 3.0.2a and Windows XP clients. I've followed the Samba 3 by Example document and have change the User Shell Folders registry key and created a Default User profile in the netlogon share and set the machnes group policy for excluding the directories from the roaming profile. Everything is working

Hi, I have a samba 4 AD setup and I am using a GPO for folder redirection as stated here: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Configuring_Windows_Profile_Folder_Redirections_with_Group_Policy I am able to redirect folders such as Desktop, Documents, etc but I am trying to redirect AppData and it will not work. When I try setting that, when a user logs on it will just sit at the signing in screen

Hi I have folder redirection working fine in XP. I see that W7 has taken the same configuration as I made in XP. Here is a screenshot: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/45150875/gpo.png Unfortunately, on w7, whilst the roaming profile is correctly set, there is no folder redirection. Nothing appears in the \\hh1\USERS folder for the user who has logged in. Upon opening the GPO editor as Administrator

Hi, I have read that Windows 7 is using a new admx format and that it is not compatible with the old-school poledit. If I would like to stick with a Samba PDC, is there any elegant way to get Windows 7 client to obey the folder redirection(and possibly other rules) set using poledit & NTConfig.pol? I have been searching the mailing list, but there doesn't seems to be much detailed

Been tearing my hair out trying to find out if redirecting my user's automounted home folder is killing offline files availability. We are just now migrating our windows users to win7 (school, limited funding), and while I've got folder redirection working, I also need to make sure offline files work as well for my mobile users. What smb.conf settings are required that will fix this

I've setup home drive in my AD domain, using POSIX ACL because i've a script that create home and do other things (set email folder, set quota, ...).

Dear all, this may be OT, but I have not found any answer to this issue elsewhere. This is a (Samba) AD setup, debian stretch, with Louis' 4.10.5 packages. I have Folder Redirection set up for AppData through group policy. Skype (the desktop app) does not appear to be saving credentials in between logins and when I move from one computer to another. Does anybody have a clue here why it would

Hi Everyone. I've read a few posts (mostly a repeat of the same 2) on win7 folder redirection but I'd like to ask here nonetheless. What is the proper method for implementing folder redirection for roaming profiles in Samba3? -- Thanks, Phil

I have a PC running XP that several users share. I've logged in as them on it and right clicked on my documents and redirected it for each person to r:\my documents so that their roaming profiles will load faster. I've ran into a problem that when anyone logs out on this PC, XP attempts to synchronize my documents of everyone that has logged into that PC with folder redirection.

Hi, (This is taken form here : http://samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/happy.html#redirfold ) I'm using folder redirection so I have a NTUSER.DAT file in the "netlogon" directory on the logon server (the primary domain controler), which I edited with regedit to set up some folders so that they point to the logon server by using the %LOGONSERVER% variable, and it seems it

Hello! I know that this topic belogs more to Windows 7 than to Samba. But perhaps some users had the same problem already and could give some help. I used folder redirection for an existing roaming profile as described in http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/happy.html#redirfold All works fine. But the localized geman names of the libraries changed after the first relogon as

Hello, I have refresh problems when doing a folder redirection for the desktop. My desktop is being redirected to H:\desktop (H=home directory on the server, not on the local machine) and it works fine. However, as soon as a new file is being saved on the desktop, I need to hit F5 to refresh the view, it is not being automatically refreshed (i.e. the file is not being shown). I read a lot of

Hi folks, I running samba 3.x in PDC mode with an ldap backend. Works great! I use roaming profiles with folder redirection on win2k, no problem. Here's the issue, I have a few machines that run xp pro that I need to give the users domain access but NOT roaming profiles. So, I have disabled roaming profiles on the pcs by using the "no propagate changes to the server" and "only

I have a samba/ldap PDC with a netlogon share and a samba member server (called sirius) with Profiles and homes shares (samba 3.0.14). Each user in the LDAP database has its sambaHomeDrive attribute set to "H:". I'm trying to follow http://samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/happy.html#redirfold to configure my XP Pro client. It seems that I'm unable to have "folder
