Thanks guys.

[Samba] Automatically create profile directory
I have my Samba PDC setup to use roaming profiles. If the user's profile directory exists (ex: /var/lib/samba/profiles/someuser) with the correct permissions and ownership then it works fine. However, I expect (incorrectly?) that Samba would auto-create the user's profile directory the first time the user logged in. Am I wrong or have I missed something?
