Hello!
I know that this topic belogs more to Windows 7 than to Samba. But
perhaps some users had the same problem already and could give some help.
I used folder redirection for an existing roaming profile as described
in http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/happy.html#redirfold
All works fine. But the localized geman names of the libraries changed
after the first relogon as described below.
- Eigene Bilder (My Pictures)--> Pictures
- Eigene Dokumente (My Documents) --> Documents
- Eigene Musik (My Musik) --> Music
- Eigene Videos (My Videos) --> Videos
I did this things with Windows 7 and Samba 3.5.9 and have done the
following steps:
1. Log on to the users profile
2. Changed the registry value for AppData at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Default\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User
Shell Folders\
from %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming
to \\servername\username\.folderredirection\AppData\Roaming
3. Log out the user and copied the directory on the samba server
from /home/username/.msprofile.V2/AppData
to /home/username/.folderredirection
4. Log on to the users profile again.
Thanks for help.
Alex
