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

Hello all, I have a FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE amd64 VM, with 4GB RAM and ZFS, running on an ESX host. I installed and configured samba 4 with the following configuration: [global] workgroup = TST-DOM realm = TST-DOM.TLD.COM netbios name = SAMBA4 server role = active directory domain controller idmap_ldb:use rfc2307 = yes logon path = \\%L\Profiles\%U [netlogon] path =

Well, I've just added another directory to not make the redirected folders a the root. And, Favorites and Documents do work. Goog suggestion to check the Windows event viewer. I'll do that and get back with what I find. Thanks, --Mark -----Original Message----- > To: samba at lists.samba.org > From: James <lingpanda101 at gmail.com> > Date: Tue, 1 Sep 2015 08:14:06 -0400

Hi Everyone, Does anybody use roaming profiles in domain level? I'm looking for helps for setting up Samba as a NT4 domain member to support roaming profiles for sharing during domain logon of Windows clients. I ran into the problems. log files couldn't show specified messages, except for BUFFER_TOO_SMALL. If a profile share directory is mounted on a Windows NT DC or a Windows domain

Hello together, we try to setup a samba domain controller with LDAP and roaming profiles for Win7-Clients. Everything looks fine last Friday but today the clients did not longer save changes to the profiles. There is no error in samba log and also no in the windows log. If I delete a profile from a client it is loaded correctly at next logon, but the changes are not saved at logout. Windows XP

I've some queries on Samba, hope that someone in the mailing list can help me :) 1) I've Samba PDC with W2k workstation (w2kwks). When I login into w2kwks, it created a folder with my username in C:\Documents and Settings directory (which I think is the roaming profile directory?) 2) When I configure Outlook 2000 on the w2kwks (for imap), it automatically create a Personal Folder in

I've posted a couple of times about this problem. This is a plea for help with Roaming Profile configuration. The short problem is that logging on and logging off takes about ten minutes, with a fresh roaming profile (~1MB), on a 100Mb LAN. If anyone has any suggestions or pointers or questions, *please* pipe up. I'm all out of ideas.

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

Dear all, We have perfectly working roaming profiles on Samba 3.3.10 (SuSE) with Windows 7 clients. We configured our new server with same domain name, Samba 4.1.11 (Debian). On the new server, for newly created profiles, it works perfectly, we can login, logout, profiles are created and saved. But if we want to copy an existing profile from current server to the new one, it's

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, I'm working on a server that was upgraded a few weeks ago (Linux Mandriva was reinstalled with a more up-to-date Samba version which is 3.3.2). Now, roaming profiles no longer work. I even wonder what would be the proper to way to test them. Workstations are running Windows XP. I followed the procedure for Win2000/XP located here:

Hello, When a notebook joins a domain, it creates a new (roaming) profile for the domain user. XP sees this user (Domain\User) as someone different from the local user (Hostname\User) which existed before. Is there a way to reconcile these two personalities, while keeping the profile as roaming, so the user can both use different computers in the domain with his roaming profile, and also use

I'm mulling over the idea of replacing my Win 2k MS AD using Samba. But I'd like to retain roaming profile capability for all my users. Based on your experience is it stable enough to implement for a production environment? I have only 30 using Win 2k Pro and some XP. What are the pit falls I need to look out for? Thank you! Joe

Hi list, this is my first email here :-) Im using samba4 as ad-dc with ubuntu-14.04.1, which works. I can login in previously created users on samba4-server with my win8-client. Unfortunatly I wasnt able to create working roaming profiles yet. Following the howtos in internet always need the use of windows admin-tools for creating roaming profiles with the right permissions. Is it possible to

Hi, I have large size Roaming profiles in Win2k and Samba. Samba 2.2.2 is acting as a PDC. Does Win2k load all the files from scratch from the samba server everytime a user log in? Or does Win2k or Samba provides some sort of diff mecanism, so that only modified files are loaded from the Samba server(to speed think up)?
