Windows .V2 profiles unable to download from a Mac Server

Hi
We've recently upgraded our file servers from 10.7.5 to 10.8.2 due to some issues with SMBX and inactive memory. While the inactive memory seems for the most part to have resoved it's self. We're still having problems with SMBX.
I have a feeling all our problems are connected somehow, but I can't figure out what it it is.
I'll start with our most urgent issue
We have a file server that hold's all our Student home folders and Windows profiles. When a WIN7 user goes to login it's been taking an age, the problem is that for some reason the WIN7 machine is unable to download that users profile and logs them in with a temporary one. When you look at the in Event Viewer the following message show's up:
I've checked the permission's and the network and they seem fine to me, infact once logged in with the temporary profile, I can connect to the profile share, create a folder and browse the users profile!
The console logs for smbd on the server only tell me when people are connecting to thier home folders.
Our next issue is when we craete an Active Directory user (from our domain admin accounts), fill in the path for the home folder, once apply is pressed we get the following message:
The home folder cannot be created because: The request is not supported
If you click ok on that message it then goes back to the account, if you press apply again it say's that the folder is already there and would I like to set the permissions? Great I say, until I check the permissions and they're all correct other than the user isnt in the permissions at all!
Our third issue is that windows users (including domain admins) are unable to see the permissions on a file or folder, located on our Mac file servers. Not so much of an issue more of an annoyance.
Any help would be greatly appricateted!
Thanks, Paul

Some of the troubleshooting we have done are as follows:
Checked DNS - our backup network was also registering in DNS so I ran dsconfigad -restrictDDNS "bond0" so that our connection the domain only registered in DNS and stoped the backup network's IP address from registering.
Moved a student's profile from the Mac server to a Windows server (changed path in AD) - User could login with their moved profile.
Deleted and re-created the profile shares.
Checked the permissions are correct and the same as the windows counter part that does work.

    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in

    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

    I am unable to download from either the App Store or the iTunes Store.  When I get to the download button - it reverts back to the beginning.  All my settings are good.  There is no error message.  Does anyone have any ideas?  (I also tried shutting down) Thanks, in advance.

  • I installed iOS 5 on my iPad and unable to  Download from iTunes store

    I installed iOS 5 on my iPad and unable to  Download from iTunes store

    Hi all...I just got a solution to the problem. It's foolproof. Connect your iPad to your PC and re-install iOS 6. In case you would like to know how - Click on iPad in iTunes and then click on restore button. Then just follow the steps from there on. It worked for me. I know this is a "not-the-desired" solution, but it will fix your problem. For me it solved another problem - I had noticed a deterioration in speed when I had originally upgraded from 5 to 6. After doing this re-install, I can confirm, there is a noticeable difference in speed...across the board, including Siri responses. Thanks and best of luck.

    I traied to remove cookies and still don't working.

    Regretably, none of the above solutions has resolved this problem for me.
    Whenever I try to perform updates (in my case, Xcode and iPhoto both want to update), I receive the following error:
    An error occurred during purchase.
    (of course, I am not trying to purchase anything, it is a free update)
    If I press Retry, the above repeats until I press Cancel, then I see:
    We could not complete your request.

    I have been "trying again later" for three weeks now, with no resolution in sight.

  • Hey Guys I Wanted To Know How Do I Change The Download/Install Location Of Apps I download From The Mac App Store Bac To The Dock Like In Snow Leopard?

    So Every Time I Download From The Mac App Store (In Lion) It Always Pops Up And Downloads/Installs In The iOS Feature Thing, So How Do I Change That So It Doenloads/Installs Straight 2 The Dock Like In Snow Leopard?? lol
    Specs...
    Macbook Pro (Early 2008)
    Intel Core 2 Duo
    4GB RAM (MAXED)

    Actually it does because the Dock is Snow Leopard's program launcher. For Lion, LaunchPad is the program launcher, not the Dock. Don't like that? Here's where you complain. Otherwise, you asked and I answered.

    Hi,
    Unfortunately, this is a feature that Apple have taken away.
    The best way to let them know you want it back is via http://www.apple.com/feedback/

    Hi Sandra,
    you'll need to edit the security settings to install programs 'Mac App Store and identified developers'
    Open the Systems Preference and go to Security & Privacy.  There will be a section in the 'General' tab for 'Allow apps downloaded from:"  The default selection is 'Mac App Store'.  Change this setting to 'Mac App Store and identified developers".
    This screenshot is taken on OS X 10.10 (Yosemite), so it may look slightly different if you're on a different OS X version.

  • ""Install Adobe Flash Player.app" can't be opened because... not downloaded from the Mac App Store"

    I jsut upgraded to 10.9 and it is up to date and also my safari is up to date (no updates available for it). My safari is saying that my flash is out of date. when I follow the links it lets me download but when I double click to install it tell me "“Install Adobe Flash Player.app” can’t be opened because it was not downloaded from the Mac App Store.". When I install the flash UNinstaller and try to install that, it tells me the same. I ALSO found the exact same problem when I tried to install the acrobat installer (some tried to download a pdf and the page told me that my acrobat reader 'might' be out of date). Any thought?

    You're running up against the GateKeeper.
    Download the offline installer: Flash Player 12.0.0.44 (Mac OS X) by right clicking and choosing "Download Linked File As".
    Mount the DMG and when it opens, right click the installer and choose "Open".
    You'll see a warning. Click "Open" again.
    It will run from there.
