Setting up Samba AD Server with Roaming Profiles is not very hard. But some changes are different then other tutorials.

  1. Setup Samba using this page: up a samba-ad-dc
  2. Create a directory to store the roaming profiles: mkdir -p /srv/samba/Profiles/
  3. This is where my (jhjacobs81) journey differs from the average tutorial online. I had to use the following command: chown root:users /srv/samba/Profiles/

This was the only way so far i could get it to work. other tutorials speak of setfacl and so, but this doesnt exist in Alpine. I will edit this page as i learn more.
