I think it is due to file/group permissions on SME Server but haven't locked
it down yet (haven't turned server over to users yet thankfully). I had to
load the latest bleeding edge version (shudder) because 7.5.1 won't let
Windows 7 log into the domain.
It is currently giving this error on the windoze side:
Windows cannot locate the server copy of your roaming profile and is
attempting to log you on with your local profile. Changes to the profile
will not be copied to the server when you logoff. Possible causes of this
error include network problems or insufficient security rights. If this
problem persists, contact your network administrator.
DETAIL - The network name cannot be found.
Windows cannot find the local profile and is logging you on with a temporary
profile. Changes you make to this profile will be lost when you log off.
It doesn't happen for the admin user but I don't believe SME Server has the
admin user on roaming profiles. Samba errors make it look like a
group/permission issue:

Permissions look good to me ?!?! :
[root@directory ~]# ls -la /home/e-smith/files/samba/
drwxrwxr-x 19 admin shared 4096 Aug 24 18:35 profiles
I am in that group:
[root@directory ~]# grep shared /etc/group
shared:x:500:www,admin,public,betty,bill,heidy.lavoix,nancy.fernandez,kajia.pete
rs,zhan.lui,jason.brooke,unprivledged,allusers,afls,*jd*
Just for grins I changed the group ownership on /home/e-smith/files from
root.root to root.shared and I don't get that error when logging in.
I do however still get theses errors:
Aug 26 11:57:02 directory smbd[6442]: [2010/08/26 11:57:02, 0]

So.. lets try chmod 2750 /home/e-smith/files/samba/* (found those perms
online somewhere)
*I think I might have fixed it :) No errors on either side!*
Hopefully next time I load SME Server it will just work :)
