RE: [Samba] roaming profiles, not roaming
then you still have configuration problems, i'll attach mij smb.conf as example for you. im running debian kernel 2.6.8 with cifs en ext3 and Extended attributes. make sure this line is in fstab if you use Extended attrib and acl /dev/sda12 /home ext3defaults,acl,user_xattr 0 2 also make a registry file containing this: ;- ; do not roam the following folders [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon] "ExcludeProfileDirs"="Temporary Internet Files;History;Temp" ;- ; Do not check for user ownership of Roaming Profile Folders [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System] "CompatibleRUPSecurity"=dword:0001 nou you have my working config, compare it to yours, i had exacly the same problem as you do now.

removed the profile dir from the server and the workstation changed mod 777 to /profiles it all failed. when i turn acls off, i get the message tht the user does not have the correct security settings for the folder. which is what the documentation implied. would happen with xp clients running all the latest patches and service packs. changing acls back on enabled me to download and save the profile on one system only.

Wrong, about what below stands set /home/samba/profiles777 when a user logs out a new profile dir is created thats why the create mask and directory mask. the userdir /home/samba/profiles/Username wil get 700 so user dir is secure. here is my profiles config [profiles] path = /home/samba/profiles comment = Profiel omgeving read only = no create mask = 0600 directory mask = 0700 browseable = Yes guest ok = Yes csc policy = disable force user = %U valid users = %U @"Domain Admins" Louis >777 is very insecure that means that all users on the system can over >write anyones profile >my problem is not that the profiles can not write to the >server, changes >to the profile do get saved, its just they don't get saved to >the server >on more then one system. > >On Mon, November 28, 2005 5:50 pm, Louis van Belle said: >> This is a common setup issue, >> set profiles acls = no >> >> rights /data/sambaprofiles 777 >> create mask 600 >> directorie mask 700 >> >> >> this wil work. >> >> Louis >> >>> -Oorspronkelijk bericht- >>> Van: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >>> [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >>> Namens Jack Mendez >>> Verzonden: maandag 28 november 2005 17:45 >>> Aan: Craig White >>> CC: samba@lists.samba.org >>> Onderwerp: Re: [Samba] roaming profiles, not roaming >>> >>> i did verify that the profile was in fact a roaming profile >>> the profile downloads just fine from the system that we first >>> logon too with that user. >>> any changes made with the same user on the original system do >>> get saved to the server, i had a look in the /profiles/user >>> name/Desktop directory for files we placed on the desktop >>> after logging off, the files are on the server. >>> when we go to another machine configured exactly the same way >>> log on as that same user not does the profile not load but >>> what looks like a local xp profile loads. >>> i also tried making a new user on the smb box logging on with >>> the same system which was displaying the wrong profile, and >>> it woks fine, as long as the profile gets downloaded from the >>> same system that it initially worked on, it seems to work fine. >>> i am stumped. >>> >>> >>> On Mon, November 21, 2005 7:28 pm, Craig White said: >>> > On Mon, 2005-11-21 at 18:21 -0500, Jack Mendez wrote: >>> >> the profiles get saved ack to the samba machine no >>> problem, its just >>> >> when the user moves to a different machine that the >>> correct profiles >>> >> does not get downloaded the profiles are owned by username.group. >>> > >>> > Then it would seem to me that the possibilities... >>> > >>> > the other machines aren't properly joined to the domain. >>> > or >>> > the profile that is on the system that is working is not >>> set to roam >>> > at all...verify...Start->Settings->Control >>> > Panel->System->Advanced->User >>> > Profiles->Settings >>> > >>> > Is the type for the user 'roaming' ? >>> > >>> > How about another user account on one of the other >>> machines...log in, >>> > log out...does profile get saved to server?

RE: [Samba] roaming profiles, not roaming
i do appreciate your help with this.. according to manpages. profile acls (S) This boolean parameter was added to fix the problems that people have been having with storing user profiles on Samba shares from Windows 2000 or Windows XP clients. New versions of Windows 2000 or Windows XP service packs do security ACL checking i have only xp clients running newest service packs, when i set profile acls to no, it gives me an error message about not being able to download the profile. 777 is very insecure that means that all users on the system can over write anyones profile my problem is not that the profiles can not write to the server, changes to the profile do get saved, its just they don't get saved to the server on more then one system.

Re: [Samba] roaming profiles, not roaming
> If that is the case, what happens when you log on as that user on system > A? the user is able to log on but the profile does not download what actually happens is that the system loads what looks like a profile from the local system. very similar to a default local profile that one would get when installing a fresh copy of xp.

RE: [Samba] roaming profiles, not roaming
I can think of one thing: Was the profile originally pushed to the server? 1) set profile to local (not roaming) 2) log on as user from client desktop (winxp pro or win2k wks) to create initial profile. 3) log off client desktop as user 4) set profile to roaming 5) log on same client desktop as admin (acct that is member of domain admins) 6) right click "My Computer", select properties, 7) select advanced tab. 8) in "User Profiles" area, select "Settings..." 9) change type to roaming, click OK (this pushes profile to server) Generally I do not like roaming profiles, as (1) log-ons can take forever, (2) there is no smooth way to automate this, as initial profile MUST be created on client desktop, (3) incompatibilities between Win2K and WinXP as settings are different. A much smoother way is to use Group Policy Objects and redirect desktop, my documents, local settings, etc. to a folder, e.g. \\server\userdocs\%username%. The problem with the later, is that Favorites are not redirected, but you can do this but created a remote folder in IE settings, which is in a user home folder, e.g. \\server\userdocs\%username%\favorites. It's more complicated, but the performance gain is there, and there's automation through GPO. The favorites is something that MS overlooked. Alternatively you can create logon/logoff scripts that synchronize something like "C:\Documents and Settings\letz_samba\Favorites". With Mozilla Firefox, this is not needed as bookmarks in in the Application Data folder. - joaquin -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jack Mendez Sent: Monday, November 21, 2005 3:21 PM To: Craig White Cc: samba@lists.samba.org Subject: Re: [Samba] roaming profiles, not roaming the profiles get saved ack to the samba machine no problem, its just when the user moves to a different machine that the correct profiles does not get downloaded the profiles are owned by username.group.
