Arrgh, let's try again without the incorrect double-negative:
"which is not an _acceptable_ way to ship a network-available share."
Samba creates the directory as the user, so that user must be able to
create directories in the /home/e-smith/files/samba/profiles directory.
And of course, if they can create one for their username, they can create
as many others as they find useful :-) That's why e-smith-samba-1.1.0-32
creates the directories at user-create time (and for all existing users
on the post-upgrade event).
