Hello.
I have a test Samba4 AD DC server, and already added some few users and joined few clients. Only testing with Windows clients for now.
I want to set up roaming profiles for the users, but also redirect some profile folders (like the Documents one, for example), just like suggested here.
The first detail would be, I have nowhere else to point the redirected folder to, so I guess I’d have to create a share in the Samba AD DC pc itself. So yes, I think it’d be working as both AD DC and file sharing.
I have actually several doubts, but in order to not become confusing and kind of annoying I’ll just start one step at a time. Both the roaming profiles and file sharing Samba docs talk about 2 ways of doing: either using Windows ACL’s or POSIX ACL’s. I already read the docs for each, but I’ve never done this before and I could only get first impressions. And these impressions were “Windows ACL’s seem trickier, while POSIX ACL’s seem easier in fact”.
But, how can I know which way to take? When should I use Windows ACL’s and when POSIX ACL’s? Imagining as well if I were to move to a production environment.
Thanks beforehand.
