-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, I was wondering if it is possible to enable roaming profiles on the BDC. I have consulted the samba.org documentation on roaming profiles and couldn't find the solution for my setup: server1: samba pdc integrated with master ldap + replica to server2 users home shares and profiles are stored here in /home/samba/ and shared using [homes]. server2 samba bdc integrated with slave ldap If samba on server1 goes down, authentication is done by server2 bdc with slave ldap. But if this happens, then users will not be able to use home folders and their profles. If I copy /home/samba from server 1 to server2 and enable [homes] this might solve the problem. However, the home and profiles paths fields in the LDAP database should point to PDC's homes if pdc samba is running, otherwise they should point to bdc's homes. How do i specify that in the ldap database? I've tried useing various macros that are relevant to smb.conf, but it doesn't work. My [home] and [profiles] section in smb.conf are as follows: [global] ~ logon path = \\%N\profiles\%U ~ logon home = \\%N\%U [homes] ~ comment = Home Directories ~ browseable = no ~ guest ok = no ~ public = no ~ path = /home/samba/home/%S [profiles] ~ path = /home/samba/profiles/%U ~ read only = no ~ writeable = yes ~ create mask = 0650 ~ directory mask = 0750 ~ browseable = no Has anyone implemented a setup similar to mine? Any suggestions on how this can be done? Thanks a lot for your help ) - -- Andrei Mikhailovsky Arhont Ltd Web: http://www.arhont.com Tel: +44 (0)870 4431337 Fax: +44 (0)1454 201200 PGP: Key ID - 0xFF67A4F4 PGP: Server - keyserver.pgp.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Debian - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFAGVra5bSBOf9npPQRAh/4AKCSuvHePGtB+/nkSjK4GtZTzdTh8wCfS8+m 1shzfZmJbzdCHwx6k+BltBs=2xn8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
