Perhaps I was unclear, the parameters above are NOT in my Samba smb.conf, but from Microsoft's Active Directory Users and Computers tool running from an XP client. So on the profile tab for a user I have the following set: Profile Path\\techops-test\profile\%USERNAME% Logon Script\\techops-test\netlogon\mglcua.bat Home Folder (*) connect h: to \\techops-test\homes\%USERNAME% When I logon My home directory is mapped to h:\. The logon script does not run, nor are any errors generated. The Windows machine reports that it is unable to locate the server copy of my roaming profile because the network path was not found. The Samba resource \\techops-test\profile exists, and already has a subdirectory called marteltest waiting. I then see the odd (to me) message in the smblog on the samba server for this client that says the profile path is being set to \\techops-test\marteltest\profile : [2005/08/18 09:49:59, 4] lib/substitute.c:automount_server(337) Home server: techops-test [2005/08/18 09:49:59, 10] passdb/pdb_get_set.c:pdb_set_profile_path(752) pdb_set_profile_path: setting profile path \\techops-test\marteltest\profile, was [2005/08/18 09:49:59, 4] lib/substitute.c:automount_server(337) Home server: techops-test [2005/08/18 09:49:59, 10] passdb/pdb_get_set.c:pdb_set_homedir(806) pdb_set_homedir: setting home dir \\techops-test\marteltest, was When earlier in the process I see the profile path I want being passed: [2005/08/18 09:49:59, 8] rpc_parse/parse_prs.c:prs_debug(82) 0001c8 smb_io_unistr2 uni_profile_path [2005/08/18 09:49:59, 5] rpc_parse/parse_prs.c:prs_uint32(669) 01c8 uni_max_len: 0011 [2005/08/18 09:49:59, 5] rpc_parse/parse_prs.c:prs_uint32(669) 01cc offset : [2005/08/18 09:49:59, 5] rpc_parse/parse_prs.c:prs_uint32(669) 01d0 uni_str_len: 0011 [2005/08/18 09:49:59, 5] rpc_parse/parse_prs.c:dbg_rw_punival(841) 01d4 buffer : \.\.t.e.c.h.o.p.s.\.p.r.o.f.i.l.e.

It looks like the Windows client is asking for the right path...but error messages on the windows client just say the network path is not found, but don't say what path it is looking for.

[Samba] Samba 3, AD, and roaming profiles
Greetings, I have been working on getting Samba 3.0.20rc2 on a Sun Solaris box to play nice with our institution's Active Directory (AD) environment. The AD set-up is pretty plain and I have no ability to make changes to its configuration - a different department runs that show. Should I be able to store the roaming profile information on my Samba server in an AD environment? The rest of the campus does not use roaming profiles so they provide no support or storage for them. We've been using them for years and do not want to give them up - but we are being forced onto the AD system. We will go, but I don't want my users to have to give up features to make the transition. I have my Samba server as a member server belonging to the AD domain, I can log onto the Solaris host as an AD user, and Samba provides resources to the Windows clients - so far, so good. What I need to be able to do for my group is store their roaming profiles on my samba server, and run our logon script from our samba server. I have access to User Manager for AD and have modified the profile entry for my test user to: profile path \\techops-test\profile login script \\techops-test\netlogon\mglcua.bat Home directory map h:\ to \\techops-test\homes\marteltest I have also tried: profile path \\techops-test\profile\marteltest When I try logging onto a windows machine it reports that it is unable to locate the server copy of your roaming profile and the detail says that The profile path cannot be found. When I looked at the smblog file I saw the following: [2005/08/16 13:52:48, 10] passdb/pdb_get_set.c:pdb_set_profile_path(752) pdb_set_profile_path: setting profile path \\techops-test\marteltest\profile, was Anyone know why the UNC was flipped to \\techops-test\marteltest\profile rather than \\techops-test\profile\marteltest? The login script does not run. The user's home directory *does* get mapped as the H:\ drive. Thanks!
