I'm running FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE with Samba 3.0.20 configured as a PDC serving a small-ish network (10 XP hosts). My problem concerns roaming profiles - some XP clients take ages to logon and logoff. On doing some Googling I identified the 'profile acls' parameter as being a likely fix. However, I seem to have got myself into one of two scenarios:
a) With 'profile acls' switched on my XP clients logon more-or-less immediately, but fail to save their roaming profile when logging off. The samba logs show "request_oplock_break: no response received..." or b) With 'profile acls' switched off my XP clients take an age to logon and logoff, but the profiles are saved OK. I've spent days trying various permitations, but to no avail. Can anyone shed any light or ideas for trouble shooting this problem????
