2.2.2 and Roaming Profiles with Win2k

[Wimberly Eddie Contr WRALC/LYSFR]

Sorry about that.  I mistyped the slashes in the post.  I do have the
correct slashes in smb.conf.  

Also,  I can use smbclient with the -U option to login as a user and I can
create
directories under the [profile] share.  However, I still can't get the
windows box to see it.  The windows box is still looking at
\\sambapdc\username\profile.
It's like samba is not using the "logon path" option.
