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.

|

Unfortunately, the Resource Kit info is Win NT4/2K version specific.
|
||||
|
||||
Here is a quick guide:
|
||||
|
||||
1. On your NT4 Domain Controller, right click on 'My Computer', then
|
||||
select the tab labelled 'User Profiles'.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Select a user profile you want to migrate and click on it.
|
||||
|
||||
Note: I am using the term "migrate" lossely. You can copy a profile to
|
||||
create a group profile. You can give the user 'Everyone' rights to the
|
||||
profile you copy this to. That is what you need to do, since your samba
|
||||
domain is not a member of a trust relationship with your NT4 PDC.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Click the 'Copy To' button.
|
||||
|
||||
4. In the box labelled 'Copy Profile to' add your new path, eg:
|
||||
c:\temp\foobar
|
||||
|
||||
5. Click on the button labelled 'Change' in the "Permitted to use" box.
|
||||
|
||||
6. Click on the group 'Everyone' and then click OK. This closes the
|
||||
'chose user' box.
|
||||
|
||||
7. Now click OK.
|
||||
|
||||
Follow the above for every profile you need to migrate.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Side bar Notes:
|
||||
---------------
|
||||
You should obtain the SID of your NT4 domain. You can use smbpasswd to do
|
||||
this. Read the man page.
|
||||
|
||||
With Samba-3.0.0 alpha code you can import all you NT4 domain accounts
|
||||
using the net samsync method. This way you can retain your profile
|
||||
settings as well as all your users.
|
||||
|
||||
Also Note:
|
||||
----------
|
||||
The above method can be used to create mandatory profiles also. To convert
|
||||
a group profile into a mandatory profile simply locate the NTUser.DAT file
|
||||
in the copied profile and rename it to NTUser.MAN.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Next Note:
|
||||
----------
|
||||
The W2K professional resource kit has moveuser.exe:
|
||||
|
||||
Description:
|
||||
|
||||
moveuser.exe changes the security of a profile from one user to another.
|
||||
This allows the account domain to change, and/or the user name to change.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Next Note:
|
||||
----------
|
||||
You can identify the SID by using GetSID.exe from the Windows NT Server 4.0
|
||||
Resource Kit.
|
||||
|
||||
Windows NT 4.0 stores the local profile information in the registry under
|
||||
the following key:
|
||||
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
|
||||
|
||||
Under the ProfileList key, there will be subkeys named with the SIDs of the
|
||||
users who have logged on to this computer. (To find the profile information
|
||||
for the user whose locally cached profile you want to move, find the SID for
|
||||
the user with the GetSID.exe utility.) Inside of the appropriate user's
|
||||
subkey, you will see a string value named ProfileImagePath.
