Getting NT and Win95 roaming profiles to store in the same place.

Is there a way to get NT and 95 roaming profiles to store in the same
directory other than a subdirectory under the home share?

The NT stations work correctly with the roaming profiles stored in the
logon home location.  95 seems to only be able to store under the home
share, or a subdirectory under the home share.  If I change the logon home
to the same path as the logon path, it obviously screws up the home share
in 95 (net use /home maps to /samba rather than /home/username)


smb.conf
       logon drive = M:
       logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U
       logon home = \\%L\%U\profile
[netlogon]
        comment = The domain logon service
        path = /samba
        public = no
        browseable = no
[profiles]
        comment = User Profiles
        path = /samba/profiles
        create mode = 0600
        directory mode = 0700
        writable = yes
        browsable = no
