How to set up roaming profiles that samba doesn't download whole 
profiles, only necessary files ntuser.ini ntuser.dat eg. end rest of 
registry settings?
I would like to setup profiles running (downloading) fast from server 
when clients login.

Clients XP PRO SP3.
Samba ver. 3.0.33-3.29.el5_5

Which file form samba registry should I use to force using roaming 
profiles :
Win-2Kx-XPP-ForceLocalProfile.reg or 
Win-2Kx-XPP-DeleteCachedProfiles.reg or other registry settings ?

I would like to create 2 defalt profiles (with different shortcuts on 
desktop):
1) for group samba users "geo"
2) for group samba users "rastry"
2) another group

How Can I do it?
Please help
