samba - Dec 2003 - Problems using Roaming Profiles on Win2k

Hi,

I have set up a Samba 2.2.7a to work as a PDC for my Win2k boxes.
They can join the domain suplied by samba, and all the users
can log on to their domain but, the roaming profiles just won't
work. I'm using win2k SP4 and my smb.conf is as described bellow:

[global]
	workgroup = CASA
	netbios name = SERVIDOR
	interfaces = 192.168.0.1/255.255.255.0 127.0.0.1/255.0.0.0
	bind interfaces only = Yes
	encrypt passwords = Yes
	update encrypted = Yes
	min passwd length = 2
	map to guest = Bad User
	unix password sync = Yes
	log level = 3
	time server = Yes
	socket options = SO_KEEPALIVE IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY
	character set = ISO8859-15
	logon path = 
	logon home = \\Servidor\profiles\%U
	domain logons = Yes
	os level = 65
	preferred master = Yes
	domain master = Yes
	wins support = Yes
	admin users = rsantos
	hosts allow = 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0, 127.0.0.1/255.0.0.0
	veto files = /*.eml/*.nws/riched20.dll/*.{*}/

[netlogon]
	comment = Network Logon Service
	path = /var/lib/samba/netlogon
	write list = ntadmin

[profiles]
	comment = Network Profiles Service
	path = /var/lib/samba/profiles
	read only = No
	create mask = 0600
	directory mask = 0700

Whats missing? Help !!!

I ran into this same problem when I setup my Samba domain. In my case, my
profiles dir had
the permissions 755, which of course denied write permission to anyone except
root. I just
made my profiles dir 766 which allows the user's profile dirs to be created.
