Hi
Maybe this will help:
Windows XP users receive a "Windows cannot update your roaming profile"
error message when they log off
SYMPTOMS
==============
If you want to monitor the disk space that roaming profiles use, and you
redirected My Documents folders to the same Microsoft Windows 2000 volume
that uses quotas, a Microsoft Windows XP user who logs off may receive the
following error message:
Windows cannot update your roaming profile.
Possible causes of this error include network problems or insufficient
security rights.
If this problem persists, contact your network administrator.
The following event message may be logged in the system event log:
Event ID: 112
Source: UserEnv
Details: Not enough space to write to the disk.
CAUSE
=========
This problem occurs because Windows 2000 detects that the user does not
have sufficient disk space to copy the profile.
RESOLUTION
=========
This behavior is by design.
STATUS
=====
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products
that are listed in the "Applies to" section.
MORE INFORMATION
==========================
Before Windows 2000 saves the profile, it calculates how much space is
required to copy the profile. Then, Windows 2000 verifies the disk space
that is available to the user. If the free space that is available to the
user is less than what Windows 2000 requires to copy the profile, Windows
2000 returns the error message that this article describes.

o Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server

How To Create a Roaming User Profile in Windows 2000
SUMMARY
==============
This step-by-step article describes how to create a roaming user profile.
Roaming user profiles provide the user with the same working environment,
no matter which Microsoft Windows NT-based computer to which the user logs
on.
Creating Roaming User Profile
=================================
Creating a roaming user profile is a two-step process: creating a test user
profile and then copying the test user profile to a network server.
To Create a Test Profile
========================
In this procedure, you create a test profile for the roaming user:
1. Create a user account to act as a test user account. For example,
create an account named Sales Profile.
2. Log on as the test user account. A user profile is automatically
created on the local computer in the c:\Winnt\Documents and
Settings\username folder.
3. Configure the desktop environment, including appearance, shortcuts, and
Start menu options.
4. Log off, and then log on as Administrator.
To Copy the Test Profile
==========================
In this procedure, you copy the test profile to a network server:
1. Create a folder on a network drive in which you can store network
profiles. For example:
\\server_name\Profiles\user_name
2. In Control Panel, double-click System, and then click the User Profiles
tab. Under Profiles Stored On This Computer, click the profile that you
want to copy, and then click Copy To.
3. In the Copy Profile To dialog box, type the network path to the folder.
Under Permitted to Use, click Change.
4. Add the appropriate user, and then click OK.
5. In the folder that you created on the network, rename the file
Ntuser.dat to Ntuser.man if this is a mandatory user profile.
6. In User Manager for Domains, double-click the user account, and then in
the User Properties dialog box, click Profile.
7. In the User Profile Path box, type the UNC path to the network profile
folder. For example:
\\server_name\Profiles\user_name
Troubleshooting
=================
Windows 2000 does not support the use of encrypted files with roaming user
profiles.
