[Samba] How to enforce the client to download the profile from the server

[Dmitry Surkov]

Thanks a lot for your help. The problem is partially solved. However, for
the Samba Server not to overwrite the profile, I have to delete the
exclusion list every time I logout from the client, i.e. ntuser.ini is
being
written back to the server every time i logout with the same Exclusion
List,
although I changed it before login in. Could you please tell me where can
i
change settings (may be default user on Samba Server?) so i won't get the
same ntuser.ini written to the server every time i logout. Thanks you in
advance!
Dimitry.
