FAQ

Cannot update roaming profile

Usually because a file is in use, check out

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\ExcludeProfileDirs


Windows complaining about wrong rights on profile


No security tab in Explorer

Windows did not load your profile because a server copy of the profile folder already exists that does not have the correct security

profile acls = yes

Can't join domain

close all shares log in to windows, no anonymous 'login'

on access virus scanning

smbmount

mount -t smbfs -o username=someuser //servername/sharename /mnt/sharename/

If you get very vague warnings on debian this means you didn't install one of many smb* packages, probably smbfs

Windows cannot connect to the domain, etc..

Switch to workgroup, set system name first, reboot, join domain again, reboot.


win2k: Error joining domain: User name could not be found

means samba couldn't find MACHINE name, probably a failing add machine script? also check /var/log/samba/log.machinename for Get_Pwnam and "add machine"

create_builtin_users: Failed to create Users
