samba - Nov 2005 - Losing wallpapers on roaming profiles

Hi!

I'm getting difficulties with wallpapers on roaming profiles on a samba 
3.0.9-2.3 under SuSE 9.2 with Windows XP Professional Clients. I discovered, 
by reading other postings concerning this topic, that Windows won't use
jpegs
as wallpapers on roaming profiles (converts them to bmp and stores them in 
"Local Settings", which doesn't roam). So I converted the pictures
to bmp
myself an used them as wallpaper. Still they got lost most of the time. 

Has anyone encountered the same problem and found some solutions?

Thanks,
Thomas

I have a similar problem. I found out that the wallpaper change was
learned by the workstations, but not applied. If I right-click on the
desktop I see the new wallpaper name, but it's not applied (i.e., I
still see the old one). Clicking OK at that dialog (without changing
anything else) then applies the wallpaper to the desktop.
