I'm sending this as an FYI since we don't have all the details worked out
and this isn't a Samba problem.
We have seen problems (on the one system we tried it on) with
MultipleUsersOnConnection registry entry for Windows 2000 Terminal servers
that was mentioned in
http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2004-April/084427.html
It may only happen with users who map through Microsoft DFS paths. A year+
ago we had a problem where some users (generally tied to the same RDP/ICA
session into a terminal server) would not get this homedir & profile
drives at logon time. It appeared as if the network connection was "half
way" stuck in the registry or such from the previous user. We eventually
got a fix for this, but MS may have regressed something.
Once we removed this "patch" the problem went away.
