These local profiles are the result of the previous profile not fully unloading at logout. It is a Windows problem, not a Samba problem. There are many causes for this behavior. In Windows 7 the typical reason is a service or process has locked a resource in the profile and is not releasing it at logoff. Try looking in the profile to see what files/folders may be being left on the drive. You can also try logging in as local administrator, disabling all services and startup processes that are non-standard and then enabling them one at a time to see if you can isolate the problem. We had this issue and turned out to be the Altiris DAgent. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
