[Samba] Eliminating "offline caching" events on XP workstatons?

[David Mathog]

Our XP SP1 (patched with everything but SP2) workstations are logging
events like:

"Windows has detected that offline caching is enabled on the roaming
profile share - to avoid profile corruption (etc.)"

Following some goodle threads this was added to smb.conf (attached)

csc policy = disable

but the event still occurs, although only when something has been
saved to the profile before exiting.  For instance, toggling the
start menu into or out of "classic" mode.

Samba 3.0.6

Even with the event message it does seem to work ok.

Thanks,
