Hello list,
I recently added a new workstation to my PDC and have been experiencing some problems with roaming profiles. The PDC in question is Mac OS X Server 10.3.4, which has Samba 3.0.2 on it. The machine has been functioning without issue as a PDC and I have had no problems with my Win2k clients.
While login times are quick, the XP SP1 machine takes a long, long time to log out. Sometimes, it won't even finish logging out overnight and I am forced to shutdown the machine (or kill the smbd process, resulting in a network connection error on the XP box). The XP machine appears to be attempting to right a .tmp file to the user's folder on the profiles share.
I'm using folder redirection, so it's not an issue of a large amount of data moving back and forth. At least, as far as I can tell. Especially considering that a Win2k SP4 client can logout quickly and without issue. I've played a bit with the "oplocks" setting on the profiles share, to see if it might make a difference. No luck. I've also tried changing the "profile acls" setting. This just caused the machine to complain that it could not access the profile and ended up with a default profile.
I've googled around quite a bit and haven't found anything useful thus far. Has anyone else experienced such a problem? Anyone else have some insight?
Thanks!
