Samba/W2K Problem With Roaming Profiles

Samba/W2K Problem With Roaming Profiles

Post by Paul Blac » Thu, 27 Mar 2003 21:12:54



I've set up a Linux machine as a PDC (relevant config below). Roaming
profiles appear, at a first glance to work with WinXP. With Win2K,
however, the profile never gets copied to the server, only from it (and
then it's merged with the copy on the local disk).

Is there something I'm missing on the Win2K set up?

smb.conf:
[global]
        logon path = \\server\profile\%U
        domain logons = Yes
        os level = 68
        preferred master = Yes
        domain master = Yes

[profile]
        path = /home/profiles
        read only = No
        create mask = 0600
        directory mask = 0700
        profile acls = Yes
        csc policy = disable

Try asking in comp.protocols.smb - that is (or was) the primary
Samba group.

1. Roaming profiles in Samba

I would like to set roaming profiles in my network
and there are Win98, Win95 and WinNT in this network

I want to know is the profiles on these machines are the same??
When I user login in and out WinNT, could he open the profiles on a Win95 or
Win98 machine??

Thanks.
