[Samba] samba3 win2k roaming profiles.

[Nathan Brown]

I'm running Windows 2000 Professional and Samba 3.0.1 and I can't seem 
to get roaming profiles to work right. When there are no profiles 
stored locally on the win2k machine, and a user logs in for the first 
time, it successfully reads the profile from the server in the 
\\netlogon\Default User  share. Next, if you manually copy the profile 
to server and login to the workstation, it will read the profile.

The problem comes in when any changes are made to the profile or if a 
profile exists (for that user) on the workstation, it won't read the 
profile from the server nor will it update the profile on the server 
when they log off. I can't tell if this is a Windows problem or a Samba 
problem, but everything looks like it set correctly in Samba and on 
Windows and I just don't know what to do now!

Samba Config:

[global]
        workgroup = WORKSTATION
        time server = Yes
        log level = 11
        logon script = %u.bat
        logon drive = h:
        domain logons = Yes
        os level = 33
        preferred master = Yes
        domain master = Yes
        profile acls = yes
        logon home = \\www\%u
        logon path = \\www\profile\%u
        profile acls = yes
[profile]
        create mask = 0777
        directory mask = 0777
        writable = yes
        browseable = yes
        path = /home/profiles
[netlogon]
        path = /usr/local/netlogon
        read only = No
        locking = No
        root preexec = /usr/local/netlogon/logonscript.pl %U %M %m
