tng-alpha.0.11

[Jamie ffolliott]

Logins and logouts are terribly slow.  Logins generally get the "slow
connection detected" error message, and you notice a long delay leading up
to that message.  Logout's take about a minute where most of the time seems
like idle waiting.

Roaming profiles seem to be working, but the 'netlogon' and 'profiles'
shares are always left open after the client logs out.  Is there a reason
why?  I have a hunch this leads to broken profiles on multi-workstation
networks with roaming users (a single workstation in the domain works just
fine).  Eg. Samba handles a login from a different user coming from the same
client but can't open shares that are still open on the last users's
credentials).  The user ends up with a new profile being created named
winnt\profiles\username.001 and the old one is lost when that user logs out
and writes back the new profile to the server.  This was a problem with the
prealpha HEAD branch series, although I can't test this again from home.

I may have access to test this soon with more workstations, but does this
sound like a plausible explanation?
