[Samba] Persistant Z drive in XP

Hello. New to SAMBA.(2.2.8 on RH9) Mixed environment of 98 & (trying)
XP. My "net use s: /home" command works wonderfully for XP and 98. But
XP throws in an "extra" "more home-than-home" directory - namely
\username\.win_profile on the Z drive. I've tried disconnecting it with:
net use Z: /delete, but XP claims to have a process running on it (even
after 10 min). This is going to confuse the @$%@ out of my users.
What is going on? And more importantly: how do I get it to stop?
My SMB.conf file is a-la Using SAMBA from O'reilly press and therefore
says:
logon path = \\%L\profiles\%u\%m
logon script = logon.bat
logon home = \\%L\%u\.win_profile\%m
with -
[netlogon]
path = /usr/local/samba/lib/netlogon
create mask = 0600
directory mask = 0700
browseable = No
[profiles]
path = /ovs/home/samba-ntprof
browsable = no
writable = yes
create mask = 0600
directory mask = 0700
[homes]
read only = No
browseable = No
Hopefully, somebody will reply, if only to commiserate. <smile>
