-You must first convert the profile from a local profile to a domain
-profile on the MS Windows workstation as follows:
-
-1. Log on as the LOCAL workstation administrator.
-
-2. Right click on the 'My Computer' Icon, select 'Properties'
-
-3. Click on the 'User Profiles' tab
-
-4. Select the profile you wish to convert (click on it once)
-
-5. Click on the button 'Copy To'
-
-6. In the "Permitted to use" box, click on the 'Change' button.
-
-7. Click on the 'Look in" area that lists the machine name, when you click
-here it will open up a selection box. Click on the domain to which the
-profile must be accessible.
-
-Note: You will need to log on if a logon box opens up. Eg: In the connect
-as: MIDEARTH\root, password: mypassword.
-
-8. To make the profile capable of being used by anyone select 'Everyone'
-
-9. Click OK. The Selection box will close.
-
-10. Now click on the 'Ok' button to create the profile in the path you
-nominated.
-
-Done. You now have a profile that can be editted using the samba-3.0.0
-profiles tool.

-
-> Keep profiles clean and small by making them mandatory.
-> See the Win2K/WinXP resource kits for details how to create a mandatory profile.
->
-> Can you do this when using Samba as a PDC? I thought you could only do
-> policies if you had a Win2K server?
-
-No difference. Samba handles the profile ACLs the same way Win2K does.
-But understand that it is the Win2K client that does all the processing
-of the SIDs on the ACLs in the profile NTUser.DAT file.
-
-
-Note:
------
-> Unless your users are using Outlook (or virtually any E-mail client for
-> that matter) I have a few users with .PST files that are over 1Gig in
-> size. This is due to the regular amount of data files that we are sent. I
-> have discussed with them the need to trim those files down.
-
-Under NT/2K the use of mandotory profiles forces the use of MS Exchange
-storage of mail data. That keeps desktop profiles usable.

- this is a security check new to Windows XP (or maybe only
- Windows XP service pack 1). It can be disabled via a group policy in
- Active Directory. The policy is:
-
- "Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\User
- Profiles\Do not check for user ownership of Roaming Profile Folders"
-
- ...and it should be set to "Enabled".
-
- Does the new version of samba have an Active Directory analogue? If so,
- then you may be able to set the policy through this.
-
- If you cannot set group policies in samba, then you may be able to set
- the policy locally on each machine. If you want to try this, then do
- the following (N.B. I don't know for sure that this will work in the
- same way as a domain group policy):
-
- On the XP workstation log in with an Administrator account.
-
- Click: "Start", "Run"
- Type: "mmc"
- Click: "OK"
-
- A Microsoft Management Console should appear.
- Click: File, "Add/Remove Snap-in...", "Add"
- Double-Click: "Group Policy"
- Click: "Finish", "Close"
- Click: "OK"
-
- In the "Console Root" window:
- Expand: "Local Computer Policy", "Computer Configuration",
- "Administrative Templates", "System", "User Profiles"
- Double-Click: "Do not check for user ownership of Roaming Profile
- Folders"
- Select: "Enabled"
- Click: OK"
-
- Close the whole console. You do not need to save the settings (this
- refers to the console settings rather than the policies you have
- changed).
-
- Reboot.
