samba - May 2004 - Problems w/ MultipleUsersOnConnection registry entry for Windows 2000 Terminal servers

I'm sending this as an FYI since we don't have all the details worked
out
and this isn't a Samba problem.

We have seen problems (on the one system we tried it on) with 
MultipleUsersOnConnection registry entry for Windows 2000 Terminal servers 
that was mentioned in 
http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2004-April/084427.html

It may only happen with users who map through Microsoft DFS paths. A year+ 
ago we had a problem where some users (generally tied to the same RDP/ICA 
session into a terminal server) would not get this homedir & profile 
drives at logon time. It appeared as if the network connection was "half 
way" stuck in the registry or such from the previous user. We eventually 
got a fix for this, but MS may have regressed something. 

Once we removed this "patch" the problem went away.
