I have a CentOS6.3 SAMBA file server. All the users are on a Windows Server 2008 Active Directory Domain Controller and authentication is done using Winbind integration on SAMBA . Everything works well except that if someone logs on to the Samba Server, they see all the shared folders there and also a folder with their own name %USER%. This Folder is not accessible, one cannot enter into this folder, I have noticed that it's not being automatically created in the home folder : i.e /home/%USER%/ is not there. My smb.conf is as follows workgroup = Domain0 security = ads realm = Domain.com encrypt passwords = yes preferred master = no template shell = /bin/bash template homedir = /home/%D/%U winbind separator = $ ; template primary group = "Domain Users" winbind uid = 600-20000 winbind gid = 600-20000 winbind use default domain = yes winbind nested groups = yes winbind enum users = yes winbind enum groups = yes enhanced browsing = yes winbind offline logon = false password server = dc.domain.com [homes] create mask = 0775 directory mask = 0775 browseable = no comment = Home Directories valid users = %U writable = yes anyone who can help me on this?
