Hi all,

I'm trying to configure samba as PDC, I have a problem when windows
client log in this is the error:

Windows cannot load the profile and is logging you on with a temporary
profile. Changes you make to this profile will be lost when  you log off

I have samba-3.0.11 and smbldap-tools-0.8.8. I tryed also samba-3.0.14
and smbldap-tools-0-9.1, I have the same problem on Gentoo and on Fedora
Core4
