[Samba] Duplicate Desktop Icons...

[Jeff Ross]

Hi,

I posted this problem a while back but wasn't able to resolve the issue. 
  It's gotten worse--now almost all of my users in the network have the 
duplicate icon problem.

I'm recently upgraded to samba-3.0.23d from 3.0.21 on an OpenBSD 4.0 
server.  I'm using folder redirection to redirect the Application Data, 
Desktop, My Documents, and Favorites folders off to 
%LOGONSERVER%\profiles\%USERNAME%\ on the server by changing the 
appropriate values in the registry with regedt32.  Additionally, I've 
used mmc to make these changes to use local profiles with folder 
redirection.

Local Computer Policy->Administrative Templates->System->User Profiles
	
	Do not check for user ownership of Roaming Profile	Enabled
	Delete cached copies of roaming profiles		Disabled
	Prevent roaming profile changes from propagating	Enabled
	Only allow local user profiles				Enabled

User Configuration->Administrative Templates->System->User Profiles

	Exclude directories in roaming profile			Enabled
	Directories Excluded
		Application Data;Desktop;My Documents;Favorites


Most of my users now have duplicate icons on their desktops.  For 
example, if there is a file named test.doc in the 
/profiles/username/Desktop directory on the server, their desktop will 
actually display two icons for the file.  The properties on either icon 
show its location to be \\SAMBA\profiles\username\Desktop, and deleting 
one of the icons will make the other also go away when the desktop is 
refreshed.

The My Documents folder does not display this double icon problem when I 
open the folder, so I don't think the problem is specific to folder 
redirection.

I didn't have any luck finding anything about this problem on Google, so 
any insights would be greatly appreciated.

My smb.conf file is below.

Thanks,

Jeff Ross
