[Samba] How to use local profiles in samba PDC?

How do you enable local profile creation on machines connected to a samba PDC?
I thought it would be automatic, but it doesn't seem to be. If there
isn't a roving profile, windows complains it can't find your profile
on the server, then instead of creating a local one, it throws up this
message:
"Windows cannot find the local profile and is logging you on with a
temporary profile. Changes you make to this profile will be lost when
you log off."
I thought perhaps it needed a "Default User" profile served over the
network, but adding such a profile to my config didn't help anything.
I wouldn't think it was something to do in my smb.conf, but it's
below, just in case it helps.
Thanks
