Change the samba homepath?

[DeTe]

Hi everyone!

First i'm sorry for my bad english!

I got a problem, I also use the search but I found nothing about this topic. I try to change the path of the Samba home, profile and group folders at the smb.conf form the standard path (/home/samba/profiles etc.) to my specific path /usrprofiles/profiles (its an own partion for the profiles and groups).

Now when I create a new user ebox will generate the home and profile folder at the old location. How can I fix that?

Here is my smb.conf:

Code: [Select]

[global]
 workgroup = azbremen.lan
 netbios name = linuxpdc
 server string = PDC Server
 enable privileges = yes
 interfaces = lo,eth2

 logon path = \\linuxpdc\usrprofiles\profiles\%U

 domain logons = Yes
 os level = 65
 preferred master = Yes
 domain master = Yes
 add user script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-useradd -m "%u"
 ldap delete dn = Yes
 add machine script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-useradd -w "%u"
 add group script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-groupadd -p "%g"
 add user to group script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-groupmod -m "%u" "%g"
 delete user from group script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-groupmod -x "%u" "%g"
 set primary group script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-usermod -g "%g" "%u"

[netlogon]
 path = /usrprofiles/netlogon/

 valid users = %S

 vfs objects = full_audit

[ebox-internal-backups]
 path = /var/lib/ebox/conf//backups
 read only = No
 valid users = @"Domain Admins"
 admin users = @"Domain Admins"
 force group = ebox
 force user = ebox
 browseable = Yes

[ebox-quarantine]
 path = /var//lib/ebox/quarantine
 read only = No
 valid users = @"Domain Admins"
 admin users = @"Domain Admins"
 browseable = Yes

[print$]
 comment = Printer Drivers
 path = /var/lib/samba/printers
 browseable = yes
 read only = yes

 write list = @"Domain Admins"

Hi,

You should check the following configuration files to make permanent changes:

/usr/share/ebox/stubs/samba/smb.conf.mas
/usr/share/ebox/stubs/samba/smbldap.conf.mas

Note that if you want to deactivate profiles comment the following line in the /usr/share/ebox/stubs/samba/smbldap.conf.mas file

#userProfile="\\<% $netbios %>\profiles\%U"
and change it to
userProfile=""

Also you might want to comment the profile share in smb.conf.mas
