The error logs, when

Hi,
Have you configured autofs to mount the appropriate home directories?.
If not you need to ensure autofs is started and ensure you have something similar to
/home auto.home in /etc/auto.master where auto.home is a NIS Map containing entries like
<user> <mount point>:& bob nishome:/export/homes/:&
Good Luck
- Samba: Ideally, I think if I can get NIS/NFS
working fine, it would
make sense that when Windows users log in (I've
gotten samba to permit
the XP systems to be added to samba with samba
acting as the PDC),
they log into their UNIX accounts. But, upon
attempted login, Windows
produces the famed small alert window saying
Roaming Profiles cannot
be located, Windows is creating a temporary
environment that will not
be saved upon logout.
What is the magical Samba config/line to permit
Samba/domain logins to
read from the server's UNIX side and give the
Windows domain user
their UNIX home directory for login, and have
their UNIX home
directory as a mapped drive (effectively their
roaming profile)?
Thanks.

The times i get that error is on my laptop and that is if i try to log onto too fast after starting it up. if i wait about thirty seconds after the splash screen shows up on my xp laptop i am able to log in. Not sure if this helps in your situation.
