I'm configuring a new samba 4.1 server with NT4 style domain. I've copied most of the configuration from our working 3.6 server, making some changes as needed for the newer samba version. So far, I have been unable to get roaming profiles to work. It seems like the users cannot write in the profiles directory, but I don't see why not. Here is the relevant part of smb.cond [global]

SAMBA VERSION: 2.2.4 ERROR(S): Profile Creation I have recently been assigned to create a Samba PDC. Earlier in the week, I thought I was successful. I was able to log in, load (or create) the test user's .ntprofile, etc. Went home that night, happy as could be. Came back the next day - and nothing was working correctly. The systems could not find the domain. The domain was not

NT4 Workstation and Win9x I have working fine - where have I gone wrong ? Linux SETUP: RedHat 7.3, samba-2.2.7-3.7.3 (upgraded from 2.2.3a) Win2k SETUP: Win 2000 Pro,

I've just edited smb.conf to make it a PDC on my SuSE 9.1 machine. I can add other machines to the domain but when I try to log on, I get the message "Windows cannot locate your roaming profile...blah blah" My config file is below. # smb.conf is the main Samba configuration file. You find a full commented # version at /usr/share/doc/packages/samba/examples/smb.conf.SuSE # Date:

I have been working on this problem for quite some time now and have not been able to find the solution. I have Samba running on Debian Linux 3.0 (Woody) as a primary domain controller. From my Windows 2000 desktop I am able to browse that Linux server with Windows Explorer. My biggest problem is trying to log in to that domain. Under Windows 2000 I am able to join the domain (sjmlinux) but

Hello, I've build a domain with Samba 3.0.23 and sucessfully joined this domain with a Windows-XP-Machine. I can log in to that machine as User "Root", wich is in the Group "Domain Admins" (rid=512). But I have no admin-rights on that machine. Also, normal User can not log in over the Remotesession (RDP). Can anybody help me to figure out why? Here is my smb.conf:

Hi, I've configured Samba as PDC. It is to serve Windows 98/2000/XP workstations. Firstly everything works fine but with adding new users to the domain there occurs serious trouble.

Hello, I run a Samba 2.2.3a server with XP clients successfully. I am aware of the fact that XP restricts access to some of its users (local) in regards to some programs. I am unsure which programs these are but MSN Messenger might be one of them. I think I heard guest users are not allowed to use MSN Messenger under XP by default. Now I have trouble to get MSN Messenger to start under XP for

Hi folks I hope someone might be able to shed some light on a problem that I am experiencing with a Samba server. I installed this server about 2 and a half years ago on a client's site. The server has been running fine. We are now experiencing two problems which according to the client occured overnight. The first problem started about a week and a half ago when they found that when trying

Dear Mark, It looks like you are trying to do the same as I did. Did you read the thread I had some days ago with subject "How to copy roaming profiles to new server ? ("Group policy client service failed. The logon access is denied")" ? This could help you. Other suggestions : Not sure if [profiles.V2] is still required but maybe you should try to add it ?

The clients are on a pair of Windows 2000 terminal servers. The failure does not seem to be confined to one server and only affects some people. The error given takes place during the loading profile stage: Windows can not copy: \\Samba
