I have been having this same problem. There is nothing in 2.2.6 that fixes it. I still have no idea what's causing it.

I have a samba 2.2.4 PDC which acts as the repository of roaming profiles.
Just recently some of our users have experienced failure to load roaming profiles. The clients are on a pair of Windows 2000 terminal servers.
The failure does not seem to be confined to one server and only affects some people.

The error given takes place during the loading profile stage:

Windows can not copy:
\\Samba server\profiles\aaa\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\FAVF.tmp to
C:\Documents and Settings\aaa.KINGSFORDS\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\FAVF.tmp

DETAIL - Access is denied

Then it says: Windows could not load the profile and is logging you on with a temporary profile.

My profiles part of smb.conf is:

# Profiles
[profiles]
path = /home/ntprofile
writeable = yes
create mask = 0600
directory mask = 0700
nt acl support = no
csc policy = disable

... the last 2 lines being added during the day, but with no effect.

I have checked the source file and apart from being 0 length it looks perfectly accessible.

Anyone else seen this? Or any hints as to what to do?

I am contemplating upgrading to 2.2.6 - but the WHATSNEW gives no hint that this might be a fixed problem. Of course it might be a problem with the Windows 2000 servers - not sure what SP level we are at - Windows manager away.
