Someone, a while ago, posted on the list that in a win9x -> nt-pdc
environment the profiles are _always_ stored under the homedir. Never
had an nt pdc so I don't know.
However, if this is correct, then "logon path" and "logon home" should
become 1 only parameter for win9x machines.
One would set the parameter to
\\%L\%U\something
then profiles would go in
\\%L\%U\something
and net use would map to \\%L\%U, because \\%L\%U\something would not be
a top level share.
This would be against the theory of operation suggested by the samba
docs of "profiles stored outside the home-share".
I tested this by setting
logon home = \\%L\%U\profile
net use h: /home works
and profile is put in the profile dir inside the homedir.
