    So when I login via w2k I get an error

    Windows cannot locate your roaming profile and is attempting to log you
    on
    with your local profile. Changes to the profile will not propagated to
    the
    server.

    DETAIL- the specified network password is incorrect.

    then

    I get the following error after the first one:

    Windows cannot find the local profile and is logging you on w/ a temp
    profile.
    Changes will not be saved when you log off

Hi Michael,
I tried your smb.conf file and found that two switches you are using
killed nmbd. I removed the two lines
domain admin group = @wheel
domain admin users = root
and restarted Samba (/etc/init.d/smb restart) to find that nmbd
continues to run without those two lines. I used nmblookup to verify
that the daemon works correctly and logged in with both my Win98 and
Win2K systems.
It must be a bug in Samba 2.2.7 because I've tried other switches that
are supposed to work only to have them kill nmbd also. I'm waiting to
see which platforms Win4Lin will support in the near future before
deciding whether to move to Fedora or another OS before deciding what to
do about Samba 3.0. 
nmbd provides domain authentication and WINS server support for Samba,
so without it Samba doesn't work at all.
