Hello !

I have installed Samba3.0.5 on Debian/testing and I think I have
encountered a problem with WinXP (SP1 and SP2), the desktop
wallpapers and Samba.

If I use a JPEG image as background image for the desktop
it will not be loaded at the next logon. I have to right
click on desktop, select "properties" and then simply
click OK to let Windows load the wallpaper.

If I use BMP images instead of JPG, GIF, PNG the
wallpaper will be loaded without any problems.

This happens only with roaming profiles stored on
the samba server. Locale profiles and profiles stored
on a W2k server are not hit by this problem.

I can post my smb.conf on request.

Thank you for your help.

   Thorsten Reichelt
