[Samba] please wait for the user profile service...

[Evan Ingram]

the samba profile settings??

i've got:
[profiles]
   comment = Users profiles
   path = /home/samba/profiles/%U/%U.pds
   browseable = no
   profile acls = yes

[profiles.v2]
   comment = Users profiles for Vista and Windows 7
   path = /home/samba/profiles/%U/%U.pds.v2
   browseable = no
   profile acls = yes

but nothing is in those directories in /home/samba/. global settings
here:

should i be able to use group policy management in windows to alter
profile settings? or can i do it somewhere else? i try and add the
domain to the group policy management tool and it says domain cannot be
found.
