Here is some back ground before the question: I'm currently running a SAMBA PDC 3.0.10 on FC3. Samba is backed by an LDAP server for account information ldapsam. User accounts were created with smb-ldap tools from IDEALX. I have fixed these scripts up a bit so they also add ldap attributes for OpenExchange. The PDC has a netlogon share with a nice Default Profile for users. Roaming profiles is turned on and all profile data is replicated to the server. All the clients are windows XP Pro. The problem is the profiles are quite large and we don't have the space to support many more users. We also have quite a few remote sites were replicating an entire profile is not practical. I have found that the most important data is in My Documents. Mail is stored on the IMAP server and contact and calendar in OpenExchange. I have read many howtos including nearly the entire Official Samba Howto. All of these documents describe folder redirection with respect to roaming profiles. I have also not found any documents that address the issue of making a redirected folder available off line such as the My Documents folder. I have looked at excluding Folders from the Roaming Profile so only the Personal folder a.k.a My Documents is "roamed" but that looks like a hack. Is it possible to disable roaming profiles and still distribute my nice Default User profile from netlogon? I am fairly sure this is possible just have not tried. Is it possible to disable roaming profiles and then redirect the My Documents folder to a share and make it available off line? This is common behavior for a win2k3 server. Is anyone doing this in production and can give me some pointers or point me to some documentation? Could these settings be made with .pol file or with a bat script running at logon? My I deal scenario is this. User logs in for the 1st time the Default User profile is loaded from the PDC, the My Documents folder is redirected to a share on the server, say there home dir, and that folder is available off line. -Matt
