[Samba] Samba users profiles directory failing to mount in windows client
I am having some issues with Samba with roaming profiles running on Ubuntu server. When a user logs in they get prompted with an error: windows error-- Windows cannot locate the server copy of your roaming profile and is attempting to log you on with your local profile. Changes to the profile will not be copied to the server when you logoff. Possible causes of this error include network problems or insufficient security rights. If this problem persists, contact your network administrator. DETAIL - The network path was not found. windows error-- While trying to figure this out I believe I have found the problem but am unsure how to fix it. It would appear that for the logon path = \\%N\Profiles\%U entry in smb.conf that the %N (or even %L) does not get translated to the netbios name of the server. doing the following command shows the %N still untranslated while the %U is correctly updated to the user name # pdbedit -Lv testuser | grep Path Profile Path: \\%N\profiles\testuser If I manually hard code the %N to the servers name instead of using %N or %L the roaming profile works perfectly. Can anyone point me in the right direction so as to resolve this issue?
