Hi Martin,
Sure, its been done.  In fact, the book "Using Samba" from O'Reilly,
starting on 
pg. 194 talks about HOW to set up Samba to using roaming profiles.  If
you're
MIGRATING your user profiles from an NT server, it just means that after you
have
set up samba with the appropriat paths and directories to serve profiles to
your 
clients, instead of CREATING them, you can just copy them to the appropriate

directories on your Linux Samba server.
If you are going to be administering the Samba server, I would highly
recommend
you get one of the following books - it will really help you out:
"Using Samba" from O'Reilly (this is also available immediately for your
need in
html format at http://www.samba.org/samba/oreilly/using_samba
There is also "Teaching Yourself Samba in 24 hours" from SAMS
and 
"Using Samba" Special Edition from Richard Sharpe
You can get any of these from Amazon.com, or other online bookstores.

In the meantime, check out the reference above in the "Using Samba" on the
html
site and see if that will get you started - if you run into problems getting
it to
work from the examples there, give us a holler!
Hope this helps,
Don
