i did verify that the profile was in fact a roaming profile the profile downloads just fine from the system that we first logon too with that user. any changes made with the same user on the original system do get saved to the server, i had a look in the /profiles/user name/Desktop directory for files we placed on the desktop after logging off, the files are on the server. when we go to another machine configured exactly the same way log on as that same user not does the profile not load but what looks like a local xp profile loads. i also tried making a new user on the smb box logging on with the same system which was displaying the wrong profile, and it woks fine, as long as the profile gets downloaded from the same system that it initially worked on, it seems to work fine. i am stumped.
