[wplug] Samba PDC not saving profiles

Howdy,
We have samba running as a PDC on Debian/Sarge. When people login to the
computer, it lets them log into the domain just fine, but it doesn't seem
to be saving their settings. For example say someone opens up powerpoint.
It asks them for their initials. This is what powerpoint is supposed to do
the first time. Except it does this everytime. Another example is how
things are viewed in the explorer. Say you set your preferences to show
hidden files and hit ok. When I go back to the preferences they are not
saved.
My smb conf file looks like:
[global]
security = user
workgroup = MY_DOMAIN
server string = Some string
encrypt passwords = true
update encrypted = Yes
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 50
dns proxy = No
hosts allow = .pg 192.168.0.
unix password sync = Yes
domain logons = yes
domain master = true
logon path = \\server\%u\.windows_profile
logon drive = H:
logon home = \\server\%u\.windows_profile
When I login to the domain on the windows machine I get the following in my
samba logs:
[2004/10/07 15:37:44, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection(800)
troll (192.168.0.188) couldn't find service netlogon
And the .windows_profile directory is created in my home directory. Am I simply
under the wrong impression with respect to the meaning of "roaming profile"?
