I read a few more of the results that the google search 'user has no 
rsop data' returned. It seems it is something that happens fairly often, 
for various reasons, from dns, through 'user not logged in', to 
'netlogon server' not running or set to manual, so I repeat, I do not 
think this is a Samba problem. Your RSAT problem could be tied into your 
main problem or it could be a totally separate problem, but you will not 
know until you sort the main problem ;-)
