Hello,
The laptops I have in my network work with offline folders that are
synchronized on login (My Documents is redirected to the home share of the
user).
The problem I have is that some of those laptops cannot stay online and
switch to offline a few seconds after synchronisation. The logfiles were
mentioning a problem that samba could not find the directory
/data/files.its/nobody (/data/files.its is the location where the home
dirs are located).
The funny part is that after creating the dir /data/files.its/nobody all
the problems I had with offline files disappeared.
Why is it that samba wants to open the home dir for user nobody?
I'm using latest CVS samba 3.0 CVS version. The problems I had with
offline files exists longer then today (a few months).
Regards,
Marc Groot Koerkamp.
