Here is the log from /var/log/samba/[machine name].log. It seems to imply that it takes Samba about a minute to finish closing all the connections for the user who just logged out on a machine -- and therefore a new user can't log on and access his/her roaming profiles until the logging out/closing connections and services has been completed.
This is when I am able to log on with a roaming profile: [2005/01/24 15:37:23, 1] smbd/service.c:make_connection_snum(705) gateway9500 (192.168.1.100) connect to service profiles initially as user jessica (uid=508, gid=500) (pid 3561) [2005/01/24 15:37:25, 1] smbd/service.c:close_cnum(887) gateway9500 (192.168.1.100) closed connection to service profiles [2005/01/24 15:37:25, 0] param/loadparm.c:lp_do_parameter(3066) Global parameter domain master found in service section!

I'm not sure whether the last line above goes with logging off or logging on.

That is my observation. If I wait for two minutes, no problem logging back on, or logging on as a different user. Wait only 30 seconds, it doesn't. Waiting some time between, I'm not sure what works and what doesn't.
