Hello I've got some strange problems with Samba-3.0.4. When using roaming profiles, keyboard layout is set to english (instead of norwegian) and a lot of programs wont load correctly. Setting log level = 3 revealed a lot of errors after the netlogon-script had executed (and all shares correctly set up). I switched to log level = 10 to get a more detailed view of these errors (show below).

I've the same strange problem. No literature about. Some ideas ? Lodovico Saccol

Hallo, i use a samba pdc (3.020) and OpenLdap on a SUSE 9.3 Server. Everything works fine but the User have different PC's with French Language Environment and some with German Environment. My Problem is when a User logon at a German PC all German Folder would be created/modified in his roaming Directory. When he logon on a French PC he create/modify the french Folder. The Effect is that some

Paul, Thank you very much for your information. I, too, had noticed that the ProfilePath and CentralPath values could be altered to point to the proper local path, and that technique at least fixed the immediate problem. Unfortunately, further review of my setup has revealed a very frustrating migration issue that I had not yet realized. The issue is very subtle and very frustrating, but I believe

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

Hi all, I am currently fighting with roaming user profiles which shall be stored on an Ubuntu 8.04 Xeon (64 bit) box. I'm running the stock Ubuntu packages (version 3.0.28a-1ubuntu4.4). The Ubuntu box runs as PDC with a LDAP backend. Adding a Win 2000 SP4 workstation to the domain works flawlessly. If I log on on the workstation with a root-like account (UNIX user id 0, UNIX

I've got some annoying Problems with roaming profiles. Perhaps someone is able to help me... I would like to use Samba as a PDC and for storing NT roaming profiles. When I first installed Samba 3.02 and XP SP1 (Before that I used Samba 2.2.8a and XP without SP1), XP downloaded the old profiles it found. But upon shutdown or logoff, changes to the profiles were not written to the server. I

Hi, i'm new in the mailing list :)... I have a little question... Is there any way to enable folder redirection for some folders like My Docs, or Desktop without using roaming profiles? That's all :P Thanks

Hi, Im using roaming profiles on a FreeBSD 4.7 server for all the Win2K clients on the network. At this moment only 1 client is working on the domain. The roaming profiles are working OK, but it takes such a long time (2 or 3 minutes) to login or to logout. The server is quick enough (dual processor 1Ghz, 512 MB memory, 230 GB harddisk), but why does this take so much time? It's very

I would like to know if anybody on this list has managed to have a network of 98 clients running off a samba server, and had roaming profiles, i.e. people's settings follow them from machine to machine. I have done everything I find in the guides, and I have no idea why the machines create new local profiles. I've searched the net for documentation, example websites, etc, but it seems the

Please bear with me as this is quite a complicated problem which has eluded me for days now... I recently upgraded a Samba 2.2 PDC to Samba 3.0 [3.0.20a as of now]. After upgrading, I had problems with two XP machines, among 16 of them. One of them didn't validate the domain users correctly. That was immediately taken care of by having said machine leave and re-join the domain. Nothing

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

Hello. I've googled around, but I couldn't find anything really like my problem. I've got a newtwork with a Samba PDC and BDC (both running 3.0.25 on FreeBSD with ldapsam_compat backend). Everything works fine with Windows 2000/XP with roaming profiles in //PDC/user/profile (it even worked with 98 back when there was a few), but now I had to add a Vista Business laptop. This joined

Hello everyone. I wanted to get some feedback and opinions from people regarding the use of Roaming profiles. originally, I was planning on using roaming profiles. However, I am starting to wonder if this is such a good idea. The reason is that, if I implement roaming profiles, there is a good chance that there will be network congestion as well as a lot of stress on the server. (50 users so

I have a network of 2K and XP clients that I am migrating to a domain using Samba 3 as a PDC. I have the domain working quite well after quite a bit of tweaking. My problem is that I want people to logon to the domain, but I also want them to keep their profiles from their local users. How can I go about this? -- Andrew Gaffney

Hey everyone. We have two offices accessing the same Samba server, which is a PDC and file server. The server is located in one of the offices, but the other office is only connected by a relatively slow link (1.5 megabit/s). I'm looking for a way to turn off roaming profiles only for those users which are at the remote site. (It's a tad inconvenient when it takes an hour or two to

Hey folks, I've been testing Samba 4 with some Windows 7 virtual machines and the Active Directory how-to instructions here: http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_AD_DC_HOWTO. As far as I can tell, the instructions work exactly as described, except when it comes to roaming profiles. When I attempt to use those, the user can log in but gets a message warning that Windows could not load their
