I seem to have found a discrepancy between using the backend tdbsam and
smbpasswd.
When using the backend smbpasswd if i have
logon path = \\$L\profiles\%u\%m
then profiles are read and created correctly.
If I then switch the backend to tdbsam I get errors on both win2k and
winxp stating that the profiles cannot be located.
After some investigation I noticed that when I then logged out of win2k
and winxp the clients tried to save roaming profile on the samba server
called "%u".
I then changed the logon path to read :
logon path = \\$L\profiles\%U\%M ; i.e UPPERCASE 'U' and 'M'
and the roaming profiles get created and read correctly now.
