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. - - |
