Hi,
When a user logs to the domain (PDC on samba-2.2.1a) from Win2000 he gets
his $HOME/profile mounted as home directory (disk Z:) instead of just
$HOME. Mounting $HOME works perfectly (and has been for the last year)
when logging from WinNT 4.0 SP6a. Relevant part of smb.conf reads:
<smb.conf excerpt>
logon script = scripts\%G.bat
logon path = \\%L\%U\profile
logon home = \\%L\%U\profile
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
browseable = no
writable = yes
create mask = 0700
directory mask = 0700
</smb.conf excerpt>
On WinNT a user "joe" gets Z: called "joe" (which is /home/joe) while on
Win2000 get Z: called "profile" (which is /home/joe/profile). I definitely
prefer the behaviour of WinNT, so what should I change to get it for all
machines?
The user still can mount his/her homedir typing the path \\servername\joe.
