Hi, 
thanks for the reply. 

> Why ? profiles is a windows thing and NFS isn't

The Samba-AD is virtualized, therefore the storage is an a different machine.

I read this, but I have already an information overflow. Unfortunately, most of the information found by google is outdated or regarding a differten version of OS/Samba

>Configure the profiles share from withing windows. That could work imo. 

unfortunately, not working...

On the same share (profiles), with the same setting I can copy, open, execute, rewrite and overwrite files without any problem. permissions are correct.
Only the demo1.V4 directory which should hold the roaming profile is  still showing empty directorys, and no files.
