I've got some annoying Problems with roaming profiles. Perhaps someone is
able to help me...
I would like to use Samba as a PDC and for storing NT roaming profiles. When
I first installed Samba 3.02 and XP SP1 (Before that I used Samba 2.2.8a and
XP without SP1), XP downloaded the old profiles it found. But upon shutdown
or logoff, changes to the profiles were not written to the server. I checked
the XP event log and found entrys about rights and some offline stuff. I
added
csc policy = disable
profile acls = yes
to the profiles share, and there where no more errors in the event log. But
profiles are still not written to the server. All I get on the XP side are
many warnings from COM+ that I do not understand. They may not be of much
use, since they are in German, but I include some anyway:
1. Das COM+-Ereignissystem konnte keine Instanz des Abonnenten
partition:{41E90F3E-56C1-4633-81C3-6E8BAC8BDD70}!new:{D3938AB0-5B9D-11D1-8DD
2-00AA004ABD5E} erstellen. CoGetObject gab HRESULT 80070422 zurück.
2. Das COM+-Ereignissystem hat versucht, das
EventObjectChange::ChangedSubscription-Ereignis auszulösen, hat aber einen
ungültigen Rückgabecode erhalten. HRESULT war 80040201.
They are just warnings (the problems I had before were error messages). They
do not occur when I log off, but roughly once per day.
On the side of the server I find entrys like this:
...
[2004/04/23 01:41:36, 0] rpc_server/srv_pipe.c:api_pipe_netsec_process(1371)
failed to decode PDU
[2004/04/23 01:41:36, 0] rpc_server/srv_pipe_hnd.c:process_request_pdu(605)
process_request_pdu: failed to do schannel processing.
...
These entrys occur when I log on to the server. When I log off, I just get
somthing like this:
..
[2004/04/27 04:03:33, 1] smbd/service.c:make_connection_snum(705)
server (10.0.0.10) connect to service profiles initially as user frank
(uid=500, gid=100) (pid 16947)
[2004/04/27 04:03:38, 1] smbd/service.c:close_cnum(887)
server (10.0.0.10) closed connection to service profiles
...
I tried removing the old profiles, but this did not help. No new profiles
were created on the server. I include my smb.conf:
