[Samba] the desktop.ini incident again

[Sean Fichera]

Holger,

The desktop.ini file needs to be removed from the startup folder.
Browse your default user profile to find the startup folder and delete
the desktop.ini or you could try a login script that deletes the file
and then users will only have to see it once.  The MS KB should have a
fix for the desktop.ini file problem.  They also suggest you check for
and delete a few more desktop.ini files in different places.

Hi folks,

I also have the problem that the notepad pops up (with desktop.ini
opened), everytime I logon.

I know the workaround that was mentioned a thousand times before:

hide files = /desktop.ini/ntuser.ini/NTUSER.*/

I put the file to the [profile]-share, to the [global]-share, but it
won't work!

An extract of my smb.conf:

[profiles]
comment = Profile Share
path = /data/profiles
valid users = %U, "@Domain Admins"
force user = %U
read only = No
create mask = 0600
directory mask = 0700
guest ok = Yes
profile acls = Yes
hide files = /desktop.ini/ntuser.ini/NTUSER.*/
csc policy = disable

Any hints how I can solve this problem?

Thanks,
Holger
