I have a Samba server with LDAP (in Fedora Core 4) and numbers of XP client in a domain. After client login to domain, it runs a logon script to map drive. Each client has own home directory in samba server. Sometimes there are some clients cannot map the drive to shared folder in samba server after they login (At the same time, Some clients can map the drive successfully) My Samba version: 3.0.14a smb.conf: # Global parameters [global] unix charset = big5 dos charset= big5 workgroup = GROUP1 netbios name = Server1 log level = 2 syslog = 0 log file = /var/log/samba/%m max log size = 50 name resolve order = wins bcast hosts time server = no #printcap name = CUPS #show add printer wizard = No interfaces = eth2, lo bind interfaces only = yes passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://127.0.0.1 add user script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap- useradd.pl -a -m '%u' delete user script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-userdel.pl '%u' add group script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-groupadd.pl -p '%g' delete group script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap- groupdel.pl '%g' add user to group script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-groupmod.pl -m '%u' '%g' delete user from group script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-groupmod.pl -x '%u' '%g' #set primary group script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-usermod.pl -g '%g' '%u' add machine script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-useradd.pl -w '%u' logon script = scripts\%U.bat logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U logon drive = X: logon home = \\%L\%U domain logons = Yes preferred master = Yes ldap suffix = dc=GROUP1,dc=net ldap machine suffix = ou=People ldap user suffix = ou=People ldap group suffix = ou=Groups wins support = Yes ldap idmap suffix = ou=Idmap ldap admin dn = cn=Manager,dc=GROUP1,dc=net idmap backend = ldap:ldap://127.0.0.1 idmap uid = 10000-20000 idmap gid = 10000-20000 map acl inherit = Yes security = user template shell = /bin/false winbind use default domain = no ldap passwd sync = Yes deadtime=15 [homes] comment = Home Directories valid users = %S read only = No browseable = No [netlogon] comment = Network Logon Service path = /var/lib/samba/netlogon guest ok = Yes locking = No browseable = No [profiles] comment = Profile Share path = /var/lib/samba/profiles writable = yes create mask = 0600 directory mask = 0700 browseable = no read only = No profile acls = Yes [Shared] path = /Shared writeable = no valid users = @domain_administrators, @domain_users browseable = no read only = yes The logon script: net use y: /delete net use y: \\Server1\Shared /persistent:no In XP client, type "net use y: \\Server1\Shared /persistnet:no", it prompts something like "Network Path could not found" is there anyone what the problem is and how to solve it?

Can a domain admin log on to each system and have it work correctly or is it each computer? Are clients using ntp to adjust time? Wild guess says that some clients are almost at the 5 minute mark off. I read it wrong and answer it wrong too. So get off my case you goober.
