samba - Jul 2007 - Is the term 'home dir' and 'roaming profiles' different?

Hello,
I've just been exploring Samba again after some time, and this time I'm 
setting a Samba PDC with LDAP. Thanks for great tutorial from Samba website, 
I think I got it working fine :)

However, I've been browsing the list too, and am a bit confused with the 
term: 'homedir' and 'roaming profiles'. Is it different? If
I'm not mistaken,
homedir is for Win9X only?

When my XP client logon to the Samba PDC, it automatically "mount"
drive X:
and then when he logoffs, his Xp profile will be copied 
to /var/lib/samba/profiles/username

However, the /var/lib/samba/profiles/username directory is not created 
automatically, I have to create it by hand. Now, in the list archive a lot of 
people were asking how to make the creation of homedir to be automatic, do 
their questions and solutions apply to the creation of 'roaming profile
dir'
too?

Thank you very much.
