Note
Under NO circumstances should the profile directory (or its contents) be made read-only because this may
render the profile unusable. Where it is essential to make a profile read-only within the UNIX file system,
this can be done, but then you absolutely must use the
fake-permissions
VFS module to
instruct MS Windows NT/200x/XP clients that the Profile has write permission for the user. See
fake_perms VFS module.
For MS Windows NT4/200x/XP, the procedure shown in
Profile Migration from Windows
NT4/200x Server to Samba can also be used to create mandatory profiles. To convert a group profile into
a mandatory profile, simply locate the NTUser.DAT file in the copied profile and rename
it to NTUser.MAN .
For MS Windows 9x/Me, it is the User.DAT file that must be renamed to
User.MAN to effect a mandatory profile.
