Windows 2k Authentication troubles (profile logins?)

[Charles Henrich]

I've been unable to find any searching site for this mailing list, if anyone
can point me at one, that would be fantastic, thanks!

Okay, the question.  I have a windows 2000 machine setup with NCD's NIS login
which is a neat little tool that allows users to authenticate against a NIS
server, and if that user does not have a local account it automatically
creates one, setting up profile locations and the like.

So when I login to my machine with a user pointing a profile at a samba share
I get "You do not have premission to access your centrol profile located at
\\db2\henrich\.winprofile"

However, I can then map \\db2\henrich\.winprofile with no problems
what-so-ever.  Looking at the samba log, it appears to be using two different
types of mount requests?

My smb.conf:

       [global]

          workgroup = MVFX
          server string = DB2
          load printers = no
       
          log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
          max log size = 50
          security = user
          socket options = TCP_NODELAY
          dns proxy = no
       
       [MFX]
          comment = MFX
          path = /MFX
          read only = No
       
       [homes]
          comment = Home Directories
          browseable = no
          writeable = yes

Any suggestions are greatfully welcome, Thanks!
