This could do the job
Identify the home share on your samba3 fileserver (certain it is member of
your samba4 domain?!) as dfs root
Ex:
msdfs root= yes
On samba4 ads
[home]
msdfs proxy= \your-samba3-server\homes
read only = No
with rsat point to \your-samba3-server\homes
Good luck

Betreff: [Samba] Logon scripts, home directories, and Samba4 AD
I apologize if this appears twice: I posted it several hours ago and it has
not appeared on the list, so I am tweaking the email address and trying
again.
I have two separate (virtual) servers: one running Samba4 functioning as an
AD controller, and one running Samba 3.6.1 functioning as a file & print
server.
On the Samba3 side I am using security=ads and winbind and authenticating
against the Samba4 ADC. Everything is working great.
Where things get a little messy is with the [homes] shares.
Here is what I am doing now:
My Samba3 smb.conf has a typical [homes] section. I create a subdirectory
for each user, and set ownership & permissions.
I create a logon script on the Samba4 system -- one for each user, because
the username is embedded in it:
net use H: \\samba3\username
And then I use RSAT to set the logon script to the correct value for each
user.
It's just a lot of steps that need to be performed (perfectly) for each
user. Is there a better way?
I see RSAT allows me to specify a "Home folder". Could this be a folder on
the Samba3 server -- ie, \\samba3\username ? (I tried that and it did not
work)
I can imagine some scripts that would create the logon script on the Samba4
system, and create the necessary directories on the Samba3 system. I could
probably manage that, but I hate to re-invent the wheel --
If there is a clean, orthodox way to do this, I would like to know what it
is.
Thank you.
