Antwort: Roaming Profiles

[fricke at team.owl-online.de]

The Profiles are saved in the share [profiles]
When you type \\%L\profiles\%U.pds the profiles were found in the 
directory which you created in the share-location.

This is my smb.conf

logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U.pds

[profiles]
        comment = profile-share
        path = /var/samba/profile
        read only = No
        create mask = 0750
        browseable = No
        locking = No

Hope it works for you

        Thema:  Roaming Profiles

Hi everyone:
I have been lurking here for some time trying to glean information related
to roaming profiles.  I have RedHat 5.2 (2.0.36) and Samba 2.0.5a.  I am
trying to implement roaming profiles with Win9x and Win NT 4.0 machines.
>From reading the FAQ,and posts to this list, I understand it is bad form 
to
let Samba put the roaming profile in the users home directory
(/home/username on my system) however, when I try to change it by un
commenting the 'logon path = \\%L\home\profiles\%U' statement, it does not
work.

When you use the logon path statement should it match exactly with the 
path=
statement in the [Profiles] section?  I think I'm missing something simple
but I'm too far down in the weeds to see it!

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
James
