[Samba] roaming profile fails with NT_STATUS_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL

[Bradley W. Langhorst]

i'm running (well trying to run) samba3a20-4 from debian
with sam backend = ldapsam_nua:ldap://localhost/

when i try to log in I get a message saying that the roaming profile has
the wrong permissions. There is no profile in place for this user... it
should be created from the netlogon share (which was copied to netlogon
via the system control panel with "everybody" given permission to use
it).
heres a level 100 log

NT_STATUS_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL

is this error message a red herring?

the machine has an account in the domain
the user "guest" exists in ldap and has rid 501

I need to get these domain logons working by monday morning...
I hope I don't have to fall back to cvs from august (which seems to work
fine) because the recent ldap performance fixes are really attractive to
me.

any ideas appreciated!
