Hello,

since the upgrade from W10 pro 1809 to 1903 roaming users can still logon, but they are 'greeted' with the message: "We can't sign in to your account", letting them know, that they are working with a temporary user profile only, and that their work will get lost, if they don't sign-off.

The user profiles are handled by a samba server running in an NT4-Style DC Mode with "Single Label DNS Domain" on a Debian system.

I had a look into the registry for ".bak" profiles, but there aren't any. so I think this is not the problem.

As a test I created the new and clean empty user profile "zurbel" on the samba, however also this new user gets the same warning.

The login with this user on to a system which is still on 1809 works flawless.

A profile.V6 gets created and also the user's data get properly synced (back) to it's directory on the samba server.


zurbel# ls -al profile.V6/
