Re: Win2K as domain member to a Samba-head PDC decides it can't loadyour profiles?
Yes I have, this morning as a matter a fact. I don't know what caused it (maybe daylight savings). I fixed it by stopping then starting Samba (not restarting) the first time it happend. The second time it happened starting and stopping (not restarting) didn't work so I unplugged (cutting off the power supply to) the client machine for 5 + seconds clearing memory and booted up into my profile just fine. btw this happend on RH 2.4.18-10smp kernel samba 2.2.3a Windows XP Serv Pack 1/2000 Serv Pack 3 clients.

Hmmm, this is interesting. If it happens again, it would be interesting if you can grab a trace of the packets exchanged when you try to log on. I solved my problem by deleting my profiles up on the server, and then logging off, which wrote a new (old) set of profiles, and the next time I logged back on, everything seemed OK. I suspect that my problem was due to the SID of my Samba server changing and not matching the SID stored in NTUSER.DAT, which controls access.

I had no choice but to cold reset the computer once it started to hang. I would type in my user name and password, the loading your profile window would pop up and just hang forever (at least it seemed like forever). If the SID was confilicting I would not have even got to the point of loading the profile; would I have? Does Samba handle such exceptions?
