need help on roaming profiles

[Bobby Corpuz Jr.]

Hello,

I have read from the samba_ntdom faq that it is bad to set "logon path =
\\%N\%U\profile". The faq suggested that I use "logon
path = \\%N\profiles\%U". When I did, I get an error saying something like
"Can't create \\hilbert\profiles\bobby.pds. You will be logged using your
local profile." When I click on the folder Profiles in the network
neighborhood, NT says something like "Network path not found!". I can't
seem to figure this out. If anyone has success on this setup, I would like
to ask for help. Here is my smb.conf:


# Global parameters

   workgroup = MATH01
   encrypt passwords = Yes
   logon path = \\%N\profiles\%U
