Re: [Samba] Help needed with Windows7 roaming files.

Thanks Daniel,

The legacy  IMap (postfix and courier) server exists for historic reasons,
we have plans to merge it with the Exchange server sometime this year. until
then we will still need to live with it.

Can you give more details as in how to activate the prf file for each user?
if i understand correctly,  this will place the .prf file in the network
share,
i heard it's not supported by MS prone to errors.

Thanks heaps for the great help!

Hi Guys,

I've had a check again, looks like roaming profile is already running (sorry
about being misleading),  strange though
no local profile is created (this can be found out when i log in as local
admin and go to the User Profile tab in computer
properties),  and outlook still complains about the data file cannot be
accessed and not sending email  (we have two
email accounts in outlook,  the exchange one is fine, only imap/smtp account
is not sending. )  on Windows XP before
the upgrade everything was fine,  just wondering if there's anyone managed
to get outlook working with windows7 roaming profile.

.profile.V2 looks fine on the server.  it was auto-generated by windows7.

Thanks again.

[Samba] Help needed with Windows7 roaming files.

2011-02-17 Thread Dennis M
Hi all,

We've been trying to setup/upgrade a samba PDC (version 3.56) with OpenLDAP
as backend and roaming profiles for Windows7 (32bit) Clients. windows7 has
no problem
with login after applying the reg patches,  however, it seems to always load
a temporary profile as opposed to roaming one for users,  no local profile
is created.
this has caused Outlook 2010 to function improperly (complains about outlook
data cannot be accessed and fail to send any email),  if i force profile
type
to local only in registry then outlook works perfectly,  local profile is
not an option for us though as a lot of our users change sites/pcs quite
often.

I've enclosed some related info below;  the same config works perfectly with
windowsXP clients.

Ldap entries (samba related)

objectClass: sambaSamAccount
sambaSID: S-1-5-21-1209579028-1696229136-1764916649-15754
sambaHomePath: \\server1\user1
sambaProfilePath: \\server1\user1\.profile
sambaLogonScript: logon.bat
sambaAcctFlags: [UX ]
sambaPrimaryGroupSID: S-1-5-21-1209579028-1696229136-1764916649-513


smb.conf

[global]

logon drive = H:
logon home = \\%s\%U

[profiles]
  path = /home
  browseable = no
  read only = no
  profile acls = yes
  csc policy = disable
  hide files=/Desktop.ini/Thumbs.db/lost+found
  store dos attributes = Yes
  create mask = 0600
  directory mask = 0700

[profiles.v2]
 copy = profiles


Any ideas?   thanks heaps.


Dennis




 has anybody managed to get Windows 7 (final) to use roaming profiles?
