Problem with the new user's home directory drive mapping. I can copy an
account, but the home directory is the same as the copied account's home
directory (and drive mapping).

If I create a new account without copying an existing, the same thing
happens. The error 'network path not found' appears when I try to apply
changes after configuring the profile setting for the new account's home
directory and default network drive mapping.
 
When copying a user profile, the new user's home directory will only follow
the new username if theuser you're copying was set up with the %username%
variable instead of the actual username.

For example, if you copy \\profiledirectory\joe, it won't update, but if you
copy \\profiledirectory\%username%, it will adjust itself to the new username.
