   I've seen this as well.   Does anyone have a good workaround?

[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.
