Hi, As I configured the Roaming profiles under linux, it more or less generate an abnormal operation (in less than 2 mins) if I add/copy some files to the home directory. But for Windows XP and Windows 7 is running smoothly and it generates folders at the Samba4 server location with corresponding users. e.g. Administrator (for XP), and Administrator.V2 (for Win7/2008) based on my observations. I

Hi list At the momtent I use samba as a pdc with tdbsam as passwd backend. I plan to use ldap and I already tried it out. Unfortunately I didn't find a way to disable roaming profiles. I used the smbldap tools. First there is the question if I should use add user script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-useradd -m "%u" with the -a (is a Windows User) option. If I don't, then windows account

Hello, I need to setup this configuration: - asterisk as IVR; - dect phones. So basically I need a "standard set" of features: - each dect phone has its extension so I can call it directly; - handover of a call with "R" key; - if a call is not replied by someone ring all phones. I have little budget. I can choose to buy a fritz!box or a gigasect dect/ip base station. Which

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 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'm using Samba 3.0.22 on Ubuntu 6.06.1 as PDC for our Windows workstations. The passdb backend is tdbsam. I want to employ roaming profiles and due to the fact that we have a mixed Windows environment (Windows 2000 Pro and Windows XP Pro) I have the following entry in my smb.conf: logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U\%a Basically, this works fine. If a user is working on a W2k workstation, his

Hello, I have a shiny new RHES4 box running Samba 3.0.10-1.4E (as included in the Red Hat distribution) which is set up as a domain controller, using openLDAP and the IdealX scripts. User PCs are Windows 2000 and XP. We would like to avoid roaming profiles altogether, so we set "logon path =" and "logon home =" (with no argument to the right of the equals sign) in smb.conf.

Hi there I am setting up a PDC with Centos 5 + Samba 3.5.4 + Openldap with Roaming profiles using kixstart tools to mount shared folder and modifing some registry entries on windows workstations, The Roaming profiles works fine between Win2000 and WinXP. but when I tried to join a Win7 or Vista workstations i get mixed errors.

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

Hi All, I have recently successfully configured Samba 3.3.15 and OpenLDAP as my offices PDC. I would like to disable the roaming profiles capability but it appears that no matter what I said, it is being ignored by Samba. First is my relevant snippet for the Logon Path and Logon Home being empty as described in the documentation. Then, following that, is my entire smb.conf -- please let me

Greetings to everybody! Is there any way to turn off roaming profiles and use only local ones? In our company each of us connects to domain from its own workstation, so as I can see there's no need in roaming profiles. Why I'm asking such weird question? Because with roaming profiles Windows clients has readonly profiles! With Policy Editor I made HKEY_Local_Machine writeable,

Hi all, I think I know the answer to this, but I'll ask anyway to be sure that I've got it right. My home network consists of a Vista box that is used for TV only, my workstation, and our laptop. Both the workstation and the laptop are used by my wife and me. The laptop is on the wifi network. I then have a fedora FC6 box that is running samba and I'm trying to expand it from a

Hi, Just a quick question about Roaming Profiles : Is there a way to force Windows to use Roaming Profils only on the share network, and without local copy ? I set Roaming Profile on a samba share with a GPO, but some users have a big profile so login is very slow Thanks Tom

Good morning everyone. I wanted to ask the people on this list who are currently using roaming profiles with samba 3 how it is working? I worked a little with roaming profiles with 2.2.8a, but it was not working as well as I wanted it to and im hoping that samba 3 roaming profiles are working pretty well. Our network here is really calling for roaming profiles to be a major option here. Our

Hello All, Today I was able to implement Samba4 as a DC with AD in a test environment. I eventually got it all working and was able to join the domain from two different virtual machines. I was also able to set up a roaming profile share and configure a user to utilize this share. My issue is that when I first logged into the domain after setting up the roaming profiles I did so from a

After searching Google for many days/weeks, I've discovered that apparently NO ONE on the planet uses Windows 8 w/ roaming profiles and Samba!
