Yes, your users should be able to log into the same machine and find
their previous data, if this isn't happening, then I am fairly sure that
this is a windows problem not a samba problem.
It might be a samba problem if you have altered the smb.conf on the
samba AD DC, if this is the case, can you post your smb.conf. How are
you creating the users? on ADUC ? with samba-tool, or some other way.
I wonder if pbis is somehow involved, why are you using this, it isn't
really required.
