what happens when you create a [profiles] share such as:

[profiles]
        path = /var/lib/samba/profiles
        writeable = yes
        create mask = 0600
        directory mask = 0700
        browseable = no
        csc policy = disabled
        guest ok = yes

and set /var/lib/samba/profiles permissions to 1700?
