Hi all, I am new here. I have configured Samba as a PDC on Ubuntu 8.04 AMD 64 with WinXP clients. The users are able to login without any problems. If i enable the [home] share, the users home directory is mapped as a separate network drive. But, if i put the users home directory on a different folder other than /home. say for example /export and share this directory, this share appears in the network places in windows but not as a network/mapped drive. Also, i am struggling to make the netlogon work, so that users home directory is mapped when users login. Is there anyway, i can redirect my documents folder in windows to be permanently mapped to a network drive? Below is the config file! # Global parameters [global] workgroup = abc netbios name = servername ;interfaces = eth1, lo ;bind interfaces only = Yes passdb backend = tdbsam hosts allow = 100.0.0.0/8 security = domain smb ports = 139 add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -m '%u' delete user script = /usr/sbin/userdel -r '%u' add group script = /usr/sbin/groupadd '%g' delete group script = /usr/sbin/groupdel '%g' add user to group script = /usr/sbin/usermod -G '%g' '%u' add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -s /bin/false -d /var/lib/nobody '%u' socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_KEEPALIVE SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 [share] comment = User Home Dir path = /export/U% read only = No domain logons = Yes preferred master = Yes domain master = yes wins support = Yes os level = 65 logon path = \\%N\profiles\%U logon drive = h: logon home = \\%N\%U ;[homes] ;comment = Home Directories ;valid users = %S ;read only = No ;browseable = No [netlogon] comment = Network Logon Service path = /var/lib/samba/netlogon logon script = /var/lib/samba/netlogon/logon.bat guest ok = Yes locking = No read only = no [profiles] comment = Profile Share path = /var/lib/samba/profiles read only = No profile acls = Yes username map = /etc/samba/smbusers log level = 1 syslog = 0 log file = /var/log/samba/%m max log size = 50 smb ports = 139 name resolve order = wins bcast hosts Kindly Help
