[Samba] Roaming Profiles:Samba PDC:WinXP:User must be local admin

[Zach]

Same results for me.  I added the profile acls  = yes to my smb.conf
under [profiles] with no result.  I even deleted the profile from the
client machine and allowed it to reload upon next login.  Same result.
 When the user isn't admin on the local machine, the profile doesn't
load properly.

I have read that having homes & profiles coexisting in the same
directory is bad juju.

Here are my profiles and homes sections:

[homes]
	comment = Home Directories
	path = /home/samba/share/%U
	writeable = yes
	create mode = 0600
	directory mode = 0740
	browseable = No
[Profiles]
	path = /home/samba/profiles
	browseable = No
	writeable = yes
	profile acls = yes
