[Samba] PDC: client has profile.pds trouble
Hello list. I just installed and configured my first Samba-3 PDC and I succeeded immediately with the join operation with a Win2k SP4 client. As I afterwards rebooted and tried to logon with the domain user, both root and regular user, I got an error messagge telling me that it was unable to create \\servername\root\profile.pds. In fact, my /home/profiles directory remains empty (no user directories are created at all). Permissions are chmod 1757... I will really appreciate help on this issue. BTW: I'm not wanting Roaming Profiles, I will try them after I can logon to the PDC with local client profiles at first. Many thanks in advance. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

IIRC you need to set a blank config directive for profiles so as not to use them: logon path = Try that to switch them off. or you could could create the profile path anyway..

IIRC you need to set a blank config directive for profiles so as not to use them: logon path = Try that to switch them off. or you could could create the profile path anyway.. I didn't know that WinXP has them switched on by default, if the PDC is Samba. Nonetheless, I'm using Win2k, which doesn't behave any better. Actually I have following in my config: logon home = logon path = As you suggested to blank the logon path, I did it, removing the double-quotes. The result is still the same, no way to log on and no profile is getting created. Could you please post me your output of ls -la of one of your profile directory tree? And, could you tell me whether profile.pds is a directory or a file? I manually created /home/profiles/root and in there I created the directory profile.pds - nothing changed, even as I created an empty file named profile.pds instead of a directory.
