Firstly, how large are the profiles that take so long to load? ie: what is the
size of the profiles on your UNIX file system?
Secondly, what is the output of running: testparm
Thirdly, since you have configured your Samba server to be a WINS server, do
all Windows clients use it? ie: Have you configured all clients so that the
WINS address is the IP address of your Samba server?
