We use:-

[mydocs]
        root preexec = if [ ! -d "/n17/profiles/%u/My Documents" ] ;\
                       then { mkdir -p "/n17/profiles/%u/My Documents" ;\
                              chown -R %u "/n17/profiles/%u" ; \
                              chmod -R 0700 "/n17/profiles/%u" ;} ; \
                       fi
        path = /n17/profiles/%u/My Documents
        readonly = no
        ;profile acls = yes
        ;oplocks = no


To create a (sort of) profile share for our users, but only as needed.


We've not noticed any performance problems.  There's not even a noticable
difference between the first time you connect and any subsequent time.
