Based on what I remember of disabling profiles on the server I have that 
actually has them disabled, it will automatically set the users to local 
profiles on machines which use it as a logon server.  Windows queries for 
the roaming profile path every time LogonUser() is called from Windows, so 
it shouldn't attempt to load a roaming profile when it doesn't return a 
path to load.
