thank you very much.


Just set the "logon path" option in smb.conf to an empty string and
also delete the profile path information that may be attached to
each user account in the passdb backend you are using. (With LDAP it is
the sambaProfilePath property.)

Kind regards

[Samba] PDC with no roaming profiles ?

2006-05-17 Thread Roberto Salvatierra

hi ! thanks now I have my samba up and running fine.
I have it configured as a PDC, and all the roaming profiles work,
the management, etc. it's all fine. now, the client that I'm working for,
told me ( after some days of making it all work ) that he sees that the use
of roaming profiles in his network is useless.

ok now, he says no roaming profiles ! I have searched around the network and
i found that if I edit the windows policies, i can avoid the computer from
trying to create roaming profiles using this:

"Start/Run/gpedit.msc
Local Computer Policy/Computer Configuration/Administrative
Templates/System/User Profiles/Only Allow Local User Profiles. Local
Computer Policy/Computer Configuration/Administrative Templates/System/User
Profiles

Enable both the "Prevent Roaming Profile changes from propagating to the
server" setting and the "Only allow local user profiles" setting."

and that works, but I was wondering is there a way to stop the roaming
profiles from the server, instead from each client ? i have tried some ways,
and I always get the "I can't save or find the profile on the server, it
will be saved next time it's available" every time I log on.

now... if i tweak [profiles] or [netlogon] is there a way to totally stop
the roaming profiles from the server ? just have the PDC to authenticate the
users, and to serve files to those users ?

thank you very much.
