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.
