[Samba] Roaming Profiles Dead

Hello Ivan.

Sorry for the late reply.

What I see is the logon script = %m.bat means the 'Netbios name of the
client machine' .bat.  Myne is %U.bat, which means 'Client username
variable' .bat, I think you can use %u which would mean 'Unix username
variable' , but I haven't tried this.  Another thing I noticed different to
myne, it might be nothing, is the %u at the end of passwd program isn't
there.  I've attached a file I reguard as very useful, I've printed it and
is always nearby.

Another observation, this is what I've read and not tried, but someone had
problems with os level = 64 instead of 65.  You can't always believe what
you read though, but if it changes something, let us know.

Chow,
Trevor in South Africa.
