Re: [Samba] logon drive = Z: causes problems

2005-12-08 Thread Brian Gewin
I left logon path to default.

This is the config I WAS using:

logon script = %U.bat
logon path =
logon home = \\%L\%U
logon drive = U:

In most cases it worked OK but with over 1000 users I got too many reports of U 
drive missing and
had to revert back to the old config.

Thanks.

 Sorry if this is asking the obvious, but did you make sure that you
 set logon path (either globally, in smb.conf, or per-user, using
 pdbedit or a similar tool) when you set logon drive?  When we had
 logon drive but no logon path set, it caused similar problems with the
 logon drive disappearing entirely.

Oops, I meant logon home, not logon path; your config looks good to me.

No other suggestions, really; I might try replacing %L with %h or a
hard-coded server name, in case there's some weird NetBIOS resolution
problem going on, but that's really a shot in the dark.

Craig White had a suggestion (which didn't seem to make it to the
list?) to try first unmapping the drive in case persistent settings
are causing problems:
net use u: /delete
net use u: \\server\homes\%U
