WinNT, Win2K Profiles not working

[John Humphrey]

I've looked over the man pages and found some suggestions that I've been 
unsuccessful in implementing.  The smb.conf man page states

"...it is vital...not include a reference to the homes share (i.e. setting 
the parameter to \\%N\%U\profile_path will cause problems)."

because of this, I want to use \\%N\profiles\%U but I get an error message 
each time an NT or Win2K client logs in. The error reads "Your roaming 
profile is not available. The operating system will log you in using you 
locally stored profile." When NT/Win2k users log off they get "Cannot update 
roamin profile. Contact your Network Administrator." I'll attach the 
relevant portions of my smb.conf file.
