Hi,
I have one computer with win2k and several profiles (admin, jader, my_wife).
Now I´m putting one server (SME 5.5u2 and sooner SME 5.6) to myself.
How I can put this computer to use profiles (they are enabled on SME to be easy to use map H: /home !) and store them on SME?
Can I copy my /Documents and Settings/jader to /etc/profile/jader or something like that?
If I use a neverused user of those on SME , I have no problem to connect and create a new local profile. But I already have one user (JADER = myself!) and would like to connect to domain at SME.
Thanks by ANY tip!

Sorry my delay to answer... TOO MANY WORK!
Unless I haven´t understood the MS KB article I don´t think this will help.
I already have one local profile on my W2k machine. I need copy it to SME computer to continue to see my desktop just like now (when I´m not connected at SME, just accessing it by workgroup way!)
If I´m wrong please enlight me!
Thanks by your help!

Where are couple of ways to do it.
1. manually: Leave WS in the workgroup as it is, Map your home directory on the server to H: drive (optional), using one of many windows tweaking tools, redirect “My documents” to your home directory.
2. via domain: enable domain support on the server, join workstation to domain. (search forum for “samba how-to”). This will create new user on your windows. Login once as this domain-user to create a new profile. Login as administrator and copy you old local profile to new domain-user profile. Enable roaming profiles on the server.
