[Samba] profiles reverting from local to roaming

Hello,

I have a shiny new RHES4 box running Samba 3.0.10-1.4E (as included in the Red 
Hat distribution) which is set up as a domain controller, using openLDAP and 
the IdealX scripts. User PCs are Windows 2000 and XP.

We would like to avoid roaming profiles altogether, so we set "logon path =" 
and "logon home =" (with no argument to the right of the equals sign) in 
smb.conf. We also went around to user Windows PCs and, from the System control 
panel, changed profiles from "roaming" to "local".

However, when the user logs out and back in, the profile changes back to 
roaming, with ugly consequences on our WAN.

I do have a "profiles" share defined, and when the user is set for roaming 
profiles it does work correctly, but I need not to do roaming profiles at all.


Thanks,
Jonathan Wilson
