Description Florian Zierer 2007-02-12 09:14:12 UTC 
After upgrading from 3.0.22 to 3.0.24 on gentoo variable substitution does not work anymore for logon and profile path.

We are running openldap as authentication backend.

When using absolute paths like

sambaHomePath: \\server\username

everything works but when using

sambaHomePath: \\%L\%U

the drive can not be mapped.


When using logon path from smb.conf and nulling sambaHomePath: in ldap the substitutions work.

set "passdb expand explicit = yes"

Thanks it works, but why does we get the message

WARNING: passdb expand explicit = yes is deprecated
when running testparm?

I think the deprecated flag has been cleared in SVN.
