[Samba] Re: samba-PDC problem

Your post says that you can access the profiles directory on the server.
Make sure you can write to it as well. The Linux file permissions need to be

The following document has some good info. on setting up roaming profiles.
Note that it deals with Samba 2.x but the info. may still be relevant to
Samba 3.x.
