Not the smb.conf file. You need to configure a Default User profile in your
NETLOGON share. Follow the guidance in chapter 6 of the book "Samba-3 by
Example". You can buy this from Amazon.Com or download it from:

This can be done using the NT4 Domain User Manager that is part of the
SRVTOOLS.exe package that you can download from the Microsoft web site.
Details on where to obtain this are in the book "The Official Samba-3 HOWTO
and Reference Guide" - check index.

You can download this from:
