hi all,
I'm administering a NT-domain at a school of about 10 NT4-WSs with a
Samba 2.07-Server running on Linux. We have a standard user named
win, who has a server-stored mandatory profile. Everything worked
(almost) fine until I saw that every user had full access to the
profiles-directory. I changed it by setting the Unix-permissions as
follows:

drwx------    10 root     root         1024 Sep 26 21:39  .
(home/profile)
drwxrwxrwx   7 root     root         1024 Jul 17 23:34    ..
(home)
drwx------    14 root     root         1024 Jul 17 23:35   root
drwx------    13  win   ntuser        1024 Sep 14 23:49  win
(home/profile/win)
-rwx------      1  win
ntuser                                         ntuser.man
(home/profile/win/ntuser.man)

in smb.conf  [profile] I put
browseable = no
writeable = yes

and now the most logins start with 'unable to find the server-stored
profile, use the locally stored profile' (translated from german).
In  samba.log I find the following lines for one login:

[2000/11/28 14:43:59, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection(502)

[2000/11/28 14:44:05, 0] smbd/nttrans.c:call_nt_transact_ioctl(2516)

  call_nt_transact_ioctl: Currently not implemented.

the user gets access to his home directory, but does not find my
prepared mandatory profile but one by former pupils twisted local
profile.
What's going wrong here?
