Do not do this. The profiles share will be overwritten by the local
copy of the user profile (usually C:\Documents and Settings\%username%)
upon user logoff. So you should not directly write to this directory.

Does it show up if you press F5 on the desktop?  My first thought would
be that the desktop doesn't automatically scan for new files, it relies
entirely on being notified whenever a new file is created.  Since Samba
only does this under certain circumstances, that would be my first
guess.  Pressing F5 (or right-click Refresh) should force the desktop
to rescan the folder and make any new files appear (if this is the
problem.)

Cheers,
Adam.
