[Samba] RE Samba, ldap and machine accounts

[Götz Reinicke - IT-Koordinator]

Hi,

thanks for pointing me into the right direction!

I corrected the missing DHCP/WINS settings and now I can log in to the
XP client.

But now I do get a message, that the server profile can't be found and
the users home share is not connected to.

As fas as I can see, the paths are there and the permissions are right.

Any hints on that?


More kotaus and best regards,

	Götz
