I found the same problem. I added parameter
[global]
nt acl support = no
 
for more information at http://zeck.netliberte.org/linux/howto/lecture.php?fic=samba
That problem was disappeared but I'm not sure about other problem may occur.

Correct. I added a registry update file to the ~samba/docs/Registry
directory called Win-NT-2K-XP-DeleteRoamingProfile.reg to cause all cached
roaming profiles to be deleted in log-out. It will be in the documentation
tree for Samba-3.0.0 when it ships. Meanwhile, those who want it will find
it on the CVS server.
