[Samba] Windows XP fails to load Desktop Profile on Samba 3 PDC

[Christoph Galuschka]

Hello,

from smb.conf:
logon path = \\ibkfsv-01\profiles/%u
[profiles]
        path = /home/nt_profiles
        writeable = Yes
        create mask = 0600
        directory mask = 0700
        browseable = No

/home/nt_profiles has 777, /home/nt_profiles/<user> has 700 
and owner <user>.
