Thanks to the enthuiastic help of Mr. Dan Shearer and the excellent writings of John H. Terpstra (Samba-3 by Example) I have migrated an NT4 PDC to Samba 3.0.14a-2 on Fedora Core 4 (Cries of amazement)

The clients (XP, NT4WS, Win2K, 98 and 95) didn't notice the switch (once I had made all the correct folders!)

My questions now are fine tuning and filling in gaps in my Windows knowledge.

Roaming Profiles - seems like a great idea. Login on any PC and get all your settings etc.

So why have a "local settings" folder in your profile that doesn't move? This means that your email won't travel and your .pst gets shredded/copied/mangled.

I guess it's because a .pst can end up at 2 Gb and would kill logins?

So, if I switch to Thunderbird and use IMAP can I get a fully roaming profile?
