I have this problem...
I am working on implimenting a school network. I have two kinds of users on my network: students and facutly. I have also two types of operating system on my network: win 98 and win XPP. Here is the rights and privilages I am thinking about giving my users
Students (usage only in computer labs):
- limited roaming profile (basically, deny desktop roaming profile)
- give them access to some network devices: printers and file servers.
Faculty (usage in offices):
- give them access to network devices: mainly file servers
- keep profile on local computers (I am afraid roaming profile will take long authentication time as a result of loading profiles) How can I address this issue, especially for Faculty. I don't want the samba PDC to interfere with whatever they have on their local computer. Thanks!

Hi, make use of smb groupmapping this will solve your problem,
win98 needs the profile in users homes ( no real problem )
but you know win98 ist not a domain working os at all,
roaming profiles will work ok if you have a good network ( 100/ethernet )
the biggest problem you will see if you log in in a profile which was created by win98 on a winxp prof machine and vice versa.
It will technical work but it will look terrrible and will confuse Users.
I recommend to switch all win clients to win 2000 serv pack 4
Regards
