Hi,
I do not know if the following is a samba or windows question. It seems
to be samba question, and I do not know windows and any windows mailing
list... (But I am pretty sure if I ask the local IT persons, they will
say it is samba...)
I have a windowsXP computer in my win domain (planning to have more XP
and win2000) and a linux server with samba. Samba is PDC, win profiles
are not stored on the server.
I was running samba 3.0.10 for two days. If I remember well during this
period the local files were stored in C:/Documents and Settings/username
If I created a local user with the same name and logged in to to this
user the same folder was used. (Great for laptops or in situation when
the PDC is down.)
But I noticed some error messages in the log (now I know they were not
important), so I upgraded to samba 3.0.14a. Now the Domain User (local)
profiles are stored in the C:/Documents and Settings/username.DOMAINNAME
folder. ???
What does make this difference? How can I have a domain and a local user
with the same name and profile?
Thanks for your help in advance,
Tamas
