Hi all,

I have a really strange PDC issue: 

windows clients are able to join and to login, however some clients have
permissions issue on their local machine, for example they cannot modify
settings suck as menubar, folder view, set quick start shortcuts ecc...
so they cannot use the pc. However if they create a desktop file or
folder on logoff their profiles are correctly updated.

On the same machine some users can do these things and some other
cannot. The users are all local machine administrators.

Google seems doesn't help. Someone with this really strange issue?

my system is centos 5.1 (all updates applied) with default samba
(3.0.25) 

in my logs nothing seems interesting
