[Samba] Re: PDC with roaming profiels

[Alex]

Hi All,

Hopefully someone knows the answer to this?  I have a RH 7.3 box running
Samba 2.3a as a PDC for over 1 1/2 years now.  Things are good for the most
part, except some minor annoyances with the way windows (2k) is handling the
roaming profiles.  Maybe I need to alter the permissions for the users
profile, any insight would be wonderful though.  The profiles copied to the
local box under "C:\Documents and Settings" are set with Administrators (the
group) - full control, the user name (DOM\unix_user_name) - full control and
System - full control.  Now fairly frequently when the user logs on it
appears that windows doesn't like the copy of the profile that is on the box
already and creates another with a ".bak" extension, then ".DOM", then
".DOM01", ".DOM02" etc.. with multiple users on each box you can imagine how
fast disk space is just consumed.  The problem is that I cannot always
delete the older profiles.  What can I do, attached is my smb.conf, I would
be thankful for any suggestions regarding this or anything else that may be
problematic in my cfg.

Thanks

Alex Genna
