W2K profile creation in samba_2_2

[Axel Thimm]

against better advise, I am using profiles in the user's home, but this seems
not to be the problem [1].

When profiles are created at logoff time, the created directories have the
execute permissions removed for everyone! How can this come? A previous
admin had set in the home share
  create mode = 0640
  directory mask = 0750
which I do not find wrong and took over. Perhaps the order samba is executing
those settings is mismatched? Or some other ugly setting? This is samba_2_2
cvs from before the samr changes.

[1] Just for the curious: NT/2000 seems to cache connections to shares and if
    two users log in and off right after each other on the same machine, and
    if the profile path was pointing to the same \\machine\share like
    \\samba\homes\profile, then NT/2000 would take that cached connection and
    retrieve the wrong profile.
    But if the profile path is set to \\%N\%U\profile, then why should that be
    a problem (as mentioned in the 2.2 faq)? The two paths do differ in their
    share name, don't they?
    Anyway for the problem descibed above, there is only one user ever logging
    on the W2K, so this is not a problem there.

Regards, Axel.
