Thanks for your answer. I'll try to explain better my problem.
1.- I log on into station A. I do an example file, called "example.doc" on
Desktop. I log out station A. No errors happens.
2.- The roaming profile is ok on server (ls
/home/exampleuser/profile/desktop shows "example.doc".
3.- I log on into station B. I can see "example.doc". I delete this file,
and do "example2.doc". I log out. No errors happens.
4.- The roaming profile is ok on server (ls
/home/exampleuser/profile/desktop shows "example2.doc".
5.- I log on into station A. I see in desktop BOTH example.doc and
example2.doc. I should only see "example2.doc", isn't it?
NOTE: I'm getting crazy!! I tried samba 2 and 3 versions, maybe this is a
normal windows behavior?
NOTE2: By gpedit.msc I can delete local profile, but I don't like (neither
my bosses) this solution, because we lost the local copy (necessary if my
samba server falls).
NOTE3: It happens both with 2000 and XP clients.
NOTE4: My smb.conf (version 3)
[global]
workgroup = MICASA
netbios name = MICASA
encrypt passwords = yes
server string = %h server (Samba %v)
obey pam restrictions = Yes
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n
*Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n .
socket options = IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=4096
SO_RCVBUF=4096
syslog = 0
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 1000
os level = 64
preferred master = Yes
domain master = Yes
dns proxy = No
domain logons = yes
invalid users =
admin users = root
[profiles]
read only = No
create mode = 0600
directory mode = 0700
browseable = no
[netlogon]
path = /home/netlogon
write list = root
guest ok = Yes
I need some help.......
Thanks.

Subject: Re: [Samba] Roaming and local profiles EXTRANGE problem!!
I am no expert (so other please chime in with corrections if I mis-state
anything!)...
One point: when your user logs on, the roaming profile "becomes" the local
profile (that is, it is copied down to the local computer). When the user
logs off, it is copied back onto the server.
Here are some things to check:
- Are the users logging out of station "A" before logging into station
"B"? This - I have read - can cause problems.
- Are you sure that they are getting the roaming profile, and not simply
logging onto the machine using cached credentials? (There is a registry
hack that disallows (turns off) the ability to log on using cached
credentials. Basically, if the server is unavailable to authenticate your
users, they will be unable to log on. Maybe not a setting you WANT to turn
on, but it might be handy for testing & troubleshooting purposes).
I would think one of these two things are happening to cause the problems
as you describe them. (But thats just my opinion!)...

... something strange happens!!! They load BOTH roaming and LOCAL
profiles!! This makes that "old copies" from their profiles (for example,
if they didn't access many time ago to a determinate client) are load,
like old documents erased from other client.
