You should store them in a specific share like [profiles]
and have 'logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U' in smb.conf
Jerry have explained why in the NT FAQ.

For the profiles, you're right. Samba is creating files instead of
directories since the inclusion of the NT smb calls.
For the password changing, it's *impossible*. Nobody have written the
code. Now if you provide me a netmon/tcpdump capture or the smbd.log of a
password changing from an NT 4 workstation, I will change my point of
view.
