samba - Sep 2008 - Samba 3.2.3 as a PDC will not load profiles with Vista

Hi, I'm having a Samba 3.2.3 that is running has a PDC and it is working 
quite well with XP. When I try to login with Vista it can not load the 
profiles so I'm getting a message saying that I'm using a temporary 
profile and it will be lost on next reboot. My home drive is map, I have 
access to my profile. So I really don't understand why can't I put my 
profile in the server and load it after a reboot. I add my smb.conf, if 
you see any errors please tell me.

Thanks

my smb.conf:

[global]
	workgroup = MARIANO
	interfaces = eth0
	logon script = %G.bat
	logon path = \\luismariano\profiles\%U
	logon drive = H:
	logon home = 
	domain logons = Yes
	os level = 100
	preferred master = Auto
	domain master = Yes
	wins support = Yes
	ldap ssl = no

[netlogon]
	path = /usr/local/samba/netlogon
	write list = Admin
	read only = No

[profiles]
	path = /usr/local/samba/profiles
	read only = No
	create mask = 0644

[homes]
	valid users = %S
	read only = No

[Public]
	path = /home/public
	valid users = @admin
	read only = No
	available = No

This is just a guess and may be wrong, but do you already have a Windows
XP profile stored on the server for the user trying to login with Vista?

The reason for the question is I do know from past experience that
different version of Windows do not have compatible profiles.  Because of
that I use:

        logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U\%a

in the global section so that the profiles for different versions of
Windows are stored in different directories.  The %a expands to the
client's version of Windows.

Also the profile share really should contain profile acls = Yes

Such as:

[profiles]
        comment = Personal Profile Folder
        path = /home/profiles
        read only = No
        profile acls = Yes
        browseable = No
