Given this statement, is it possible for *some* users to have roaming 
profiles?  I know I personally dislike roaming profiles under Windoze, since 
there tends to be a configuration "fight" between installation of Windoze on 
different machines, but equally, I recognise that they're absolutely 
necessary in some circumstances.

I must admit, I don't know if Samba will support this or not...

Personally, I'd prefer a change to the "Modify user account" panel that has a 
checkbox to enable/disable roaming profiles...
