Hi! First, thanks everybody for posting.
It is a little bit odd that there seems to be quite different opinions
on what is possible and what not.
Storing Win2000 and WinXP roaming profile within the same directory:
Possible or not? What trouble can be extepected?
There seems to be no definitive answer for that question.
In addition, my original problem still persists. Users still get the
profile of the preceeding user who logged in.
Robert, thanks for the example config you posted for the [profiles]
share. I have to add that we have no dedicated profile path, but we
store the profiles in /home/%u/.WindowsProfil . Can this be the cause of
the trouble?
The complete share config as we have it now:
[profiles]
comment = Windows-Profil
path = /home/%u/.WindowsProfil
valid users = %U, "@Domain Admins"
force user = %U
read only = No
create mask = 0700
directory mask = 0700
guest ok = Yes
profile acls = Yes
hide files = /desktop.ini/ntuser.ini/NTUSER.*/
browseable = No
csc policy = disable
locking = No
oplocks = No
level2 oplocks = No
Here is the directory listing with rights mask for my profile:
hal:/home/marian# ls -la /home/marian/.WindowsProfil/
total 840
drwx------ 14 marian users 4096 Jun 6 13:14 .

Another odd thing, excpept for the fact that my profile is presented to
whoever loggs in next, is the fact that it remains on the workstation
(tested on Windows XP). I thought this could be changed by
csc policy = disable
but it obviously doesn't help.
And for something else: When I log in as local Administrator after I
logged in as domain user "marian", then open the user profiles dialog of
the system settings, I don't see the profile KISD\marian (as it should
be named) but KISD\ab. Isn't this mysterious?
I start wondering if something in the name resolution is totally mixed
up, if SIDs are mingled up or whatever.
