Hello, The below happens with Samba 4.7.* (didn't checked with other Samba 4 versions): Setup: Samba 4.7.* AD, two domain controllers, 'computer A' and 'computer B' are Windows 10 domain members. 1. A user (login 'username') logs in into domain for the first time, on a 'computer A'. Samba DC doesn't find existing profile directory and creates an empty

I'm running Version 4.1.17-Debian as a DC on a Debian/Jessie AMD64 system. After rebuilding a domain with slightly different settings, roaming profiles stopped working. https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Implementing_roaming_profiles contains a suggestion (see Troubleshooting roaming profiles) that gets them working again - deleting the user subkey from

Everyone, I didn't know where else to call for help. Here it goes. I trying to replace our Win2k PDC with a combination of Samba3-LDAP-PDC. But I'm not having much luck in retaining my user's local profiles, I want this PDC migration to be as simple and transparent as possible, but the new samba pdc doesn't seem to want to recognize the old profiles (same with the

We are currently using samba and openLDAP to enable our users to have roaming profiles on our domain network. We have one primary domain controller and 7 "home servers" at the various locations that serve the profiles and such. The problem is that randomly various users are unable to load their profile and windows just gives them a temporary profile. This mostly happens on vista

I'm testing samba 4 (pulling from git) on my ubuntu 10.4 box and have a bunch of questions I can't seem to find answers for on the web. 1) There is some problem with my roaming profile such that windows complains and logs me in using my most recently saved profile. I've tried moving my profile on the server out of the way, but windows doesn't seem to recreate it. How do I make

According to the Samba docs, there's really no good way to have Windows stop asking "You haven't logged on here before. Would you like your settings saved?" or whatever nonsense it actually says. However, due to headaches getting profiles COPIED and not merged with local copies as well as privacy concerns, I'd like to blast the profiles subdirectory constantly. But that

I'm finding that roaming profiles are not being created on the server and when a user logons, they are getting temporary profiles. The logs dont mention any obvious errors and in the directory I have set aside for profiles, a folder for the user is created, but nothing is put there. Running CentOS 5 with samba 3.0.33

Hi, we're using Samba 3.5.6 (Debian). Windows 7 clients often create new roaming profiles for existing users for no identifiable reason. Windows XP isn't affected. Is this a known problem? - Chris

Dear All, I have upgraded our samba from 3.0.3 to 3.4.15 because I want to implement windows 7 as a client. When I tried to use windows XP to join domain it,s success and no problem, but when I tried to login using windows 7 I have a problem, the problem is "You have been logged into a temporary profile".

Hi everybody, after many weeks of searching/trying, I still can't manage to get vista to use/save roaming profiles with samba as PDC... It has apparently worked a few times in the beginning since the profiles directories are populated. Could it be related to a Vista update or SP1?

I have one Samba server as a PDC with tdbsam backend (no LDAP at all), and I applied the reg and patch as described in the wiki. I have a couple of questions related to Windows 7 : - opening a domain session on the Win7 client takes a
