[Samba] Using user policies with samba3 and windows 2000

Hello!

We are using samba3-3.0.2a-30 as a PDC.

Everything is working fine, but now we would like to use user policies.

As I learned that can be done by the ntuser.pol file in the 'profiles'
user sub directory on the PDC.

So her is what i already tried:

1.) Set up a test Window$ 2000 Client and get it into the Domain 
2.) Log in as Administrator
3.) Start gpedit.msc (and change something)
4.) Test if that change works
5.) Log out
6.) Make the ntuser.dat to a ntuser.man
7.) Log in as Administrator
8.) restore the original gpedit.msc parameter
9.) log out and in again

So i found out that this does not work, as the changes via gpedit.msc
are only stored local.

Can anybody help me ?
