Your configuration is essentially stating that the user's profile for the
username 'jblow' would be in '/home/jblow/profiles/jblow' ->
the profiles
share automagically creates a folder with the users name, so making the
profiles share inside %U/profiles, means that dir must exist and have write
permission by the user FIRST, something like:
mkdir /home/jblow/profiles && chown jblow /home/jblow/profiles
Should work for the user 'jblow', but I don't think this is quite
what you
were expecting? I think you were assuming you could store their profile in
home/user/profile/<profile here>, which is not the case, windows will try
to
make the folder with their username, but will not make the parent
directories (in this case home/user/profile/). - My two cents, hope it
helps.

Subject: [Samba] Roaming profiles question
I have Samba 3.014a running. If I use the standard profiles definition:
[profiles]
path = /opt/samba/profiles
writeable = yes
browseable = no
create mode = 0600
directory mode = 0700
then everything works fine. But changing just the path to
path = /home/%U/profiles
breaks it completely. I can curious why this doesn't work. The user
that is logging in owns their directory (%U) so why does windows complain?
