Hi all; for few weeks I'm trying to implement a new samba PDC server for my school. It is based on debian squeeze and samba 3.5.6 with lDAP backend. I was able to join a computer into domain, LDAP is working, mapping home drive for users also. It seems that almost all works good but with one exeption. The one thing which is broken is roaming profile support. When user is logging into domain

Hello, actually I am trying to implement a samba PDC server with a LDAP backend where user are authenticated with. Additionally the users' profiles should be stored on it, whicht only works for one user, not the 3 other. The point is, I don't see the difference between them so it should work for all or none. This is what I have in my smb.conf regarding this: [global] logon

I have been fighting this problem for months now. My performance under Samba and XP has ben umbearable. The scenario is running Samba 2.2.7a under SuSE 8.0 as a PDC. The XP machine logs onto Samba and the roaming profiles are downloaded then stops for 15 minutes or so. The network is verified 100Meg full-duplex, FTP transfers between the machines are robust and so no problems in connectivity. Any

I need a little advice on finishing off a Samba PDC. I have Samba 3.0.0RC1 installed and working as a PDC on a Redhat AS 3.0 machine. It authenticates users nicely but the "roaming" profiles don't work. Tailing the samba log, I see the an attempt to access the users ntuser.dat file, which doesn't exist before the first logon, when logging in. The profile directory

whoops, i didn't have much luck attaching the entire file, hopefully this link will work. http://www.lebox.org/u/milan/samba/userenv-clip.txt here's a piece of the log that looks interesting, any hints? USERENV(a0.80) 15:42:18:872 MyGetDomainDNSName: MyGetUserName failed for dns domain name with 1355 USERENV(a0.80) 15:42:18:872 CheckUserInMachineForest: MyGetDomainName failed with 1355.

I am seeing these in smb.log and each time I do it appears that the user in question is unable to retrieve their roaming profile. Does anyone know what is going on and more importantly, how to cure it? . . .

Hi, We are using Samba 3.0.22 on FreeBSD 5.5 PDC with ldap backend and roaming profiles. We meet some difficulties when users logout from some Windows 2000 SP4 clients, and storing their profiles back to the Samba server. The file NTUSER.DAT seems to be uploaded and stored in lowercase, as ntuser.dat. Then, when users try to reopen a win session, they get a corrupted new profile. This new

hi, A longer time ago (maybe I had still an old samba version, I can't remember) I connected my Pocket PC (PPC2003) to my samba server without any problems. Now I've got a new device which features builtin WLAN and I tried to connect but I get an error which makes me feel sad: (in german) '\\' (oder eine der zugehoerigen Komponenten) nicht gefunden.

Hi, i have a Ubuntu x64 10.04 Server. Samba configured as PDC. Since today i experience that roaming prfiles can't copy one file to the server and shout an error message. It's no specific file, mostly its one in my Thunderbird Profile. Does anybody know what could this cause to happen? My smb.conf: [global] printing = bsd netbios name = PDC server string = PDC (%h)

Greetings! I have configured samba as a PDC. This works fine so far, I can add users, log in at my Win2k workstations and use roaming profiles. But now my problem: I want several "template" profiles. I want to use several different pre-configured base-profiles. 1) I configure a template-user: configure the corresponding Desktop, network and printer connections and so on. 2) After this

Hi, I have got a question concerning directory entries. I have the following block containing exactly the filenames I had in one specified folder on the same file system: http://www.sbox.tugraz.at/home/n/nobaq/ext2.dat I really hoped that this is an directory block which could point me to the inode of the files. But when I try to extract the data, I only get garbage. I'm reading the

Hello friends, how are you? After Windows 10 may 2019 upgrade, roaming profiles stop working. I'm still able to join the machine to the domain, but after logging, Windows was unable to download the profile from the server. I already check the SMB 1.0 protocol at Windows 10 and it?s working fine too. Without the may 2019 upgrade, everything is working fine. My samba version is Samba version

Hi, I believe I've had a 'hidden' roaming profiles problem with Samba for a while (I have no idea when it first manifested itself - sometime between 3.0.2 and 3.0.21a). When I create a new user, their client workstation creates and updates the profile without any problems. Existing profiles used by existing client workstations are also fine. However, when I try to logon as an

Hi, I have been trying to use samba for a while as a way to have an identical desktop/startmenu/profile/favourites/etc on multiple PCs. Samba is setup as the PDC and I can join the domain and login. The problems started firstly when I wanted to have some sort of caching and also logon concurrently to different pcs with the same user. The main problem being that whichever computer I log off

Hi, i've finally have my LDAP backend working for authentication for my DC. Logon scripts are executed, user is authenticated, but my roaming profiles are not found. here is what i have in my config files: smb.conf [global] printing = bsd netbios name = PDC server string = PDC (%h) workgroup = workgroup interfaces = eth0,lo security = user encrypt passwords =

Small suggestion. Get this http://www.jam-software.com/freeware/TreeSizeFree.zip Tree Size, go find out how big your profile on you pc is. then check the size on the profile folder of the user. these should be about the same. if not, Logon the server, cleanup the profile of the users. backup and remove the profile of the user on the server. logoff and logon again and check again.

Hi, first of all: my name is uli... i'm from bavaria/germany and i'm working with linux quite a long time (maybe 10 years). Now my "problem": my samba is setup with ldap-backend. my configuration with mandatory profiles is working quite good. i created a Default User - Profile in my netlogon-share (migrated from a windows-xp client). ntuser.dat has been renamed to ntuser.man.

After having migrated my machines and user to Samba 4.3.11 on Ubuntu 16.04.1 (no domain upgrade, new provision, all accounts new defined) and old data copied over to the new machines, I have now a broader testbed and notice issues I didn't see prior to that. Having roaming profiles (defined in the user object in LDB)... Seemingly at random smbd keeps locks on NTUSER.DAT and ntuser.ini for a
