  1. [Samba] Cannot disable roaming profile in smb.conf

    Hello list,
    I have a Samba-LDAP PDC and I cannot disable the roaming profile feature
    in trough my smb.conf file.
    I am using the following software: FreeBSD 7.0 Release, samba-3.0.28,1,
    openldap-2.3.41 and smbldap-tools-0.9.4_2.

    This is a bit of my smb.conf file:
    [global]
    workgroup = AMECC_SAL
    enable privileges = yes
    security = user
    encrypt passwords = Yes
    obey pam restrictions = No
    ldap passwd sync = Yes
    log level = 2
    syslog = 0
    logon script = logon.bat
    logon drive = ""
    logon home = ""
    logon path = ""
    domain logons = Yes
    preferred master = yes
    domain master = yes
    local master = yes
    wins support = yes
    wins proxy = yes
    dns proxy = no

    Can anybody help me out here.
    Thank you all!!!

  2. Thumbs up Re: [Samba] Cannot disable roaming profile in smb.conf

    you dont have to configure Samba Server for roaming profile.

    Just go to XP client

    go to run


    type gpedit.msc

    go to computer settings >>> administrative templets >>> user rofiles

    Just Enable following options 1) only allow local policies
    2) Prevent Roaming profiles from propagating to the server

    And Enjoy Samba...............

    This is the output
    amecc01pdc01# testparm -sv | grep logon
    Load smb config files from /usr/local/etc/smb.conf
    Processing section "[homes]"
    Processing section "[netlogon]"
    Processing section "[Profiles]"
    Processing section "[public]"
    Loaded services file OK.
    Server role: ROLE_DOMAIN_PDC
    logon script = logon.bat
    logon path = ""
    logon drive = ""
    logon home = ""
    domain logons = Yes
    winbind offline logon = No
    [netlogon]
    path = /home/samba/netlogon/

    I put logon path = "" because thatīs the way man pages of smb.conf says
    to put it in order to disable this option.

    Thank you very much.
    Regards!!!
