Hello everyone. Well, I have a very interesting thing happening with my
Samba PDC when I try and disable roaming profiles. As it is now, im running
Samba as a PDC with LDAP on the backend.
This is what i've done to disable roaming profiles:
In smb.conf, i've set the following two entries to blank:
logon home =
logon path =
Now, i've used the idealx scripts to add users, groups as well as modify
and delete users and groups. Everything was working well except i've run
into a snag when i've tried to disable roaming profiles.
One thing I noticed is that I would have to edit the smbldap_conf.pm and
comment out a few lines. These are the lines:
$_userHomePrefix = q(/home/);
$_userSmbHome = q(\\\\PDC-SRV\\homes);
$_userProfile = q(\\\\PDC-SRV\\home\\samba\\profiles\\);
I just commented them out, and restarted LDAP and it seemed to work.
Now, this is where it gets a little weird. When I reboot the workstation
and then try and login again, it gives an error saying that it was unable
to create the profile testuser.pds. Then it logs me in with a temporary
profile.
I've checked everything I can think of, but still cant seem to figure it out.
Anyone have any suggestions? I've running RH 7.3, with samba 2.2.8a as well
as OpenLDAP 2.0.27.
I appreciate everyones input.
Jason
