I do see a profiles dir on the server taht are created by winxp. They
are 1 to 4 MB in size.
But as said, sometimes the login/logout takes just a couple of seconds
instead of around half a minute (or maybe a minute, i did not acutally
time it).
I'm not a windows user so don't know how to turn roaming profiles of...
So how do you do that in winxp?
And what does the "set login patch" do; it is not listed in the smb.conf
man page?
I guess I have to agre that roaming profiles are not the problem as
the same slowness occurs when opening a folder or printing a document.
