+<samba:parameter xmlns:samba="http://samba.org/common">

+		<listitem><para>This parameter specifies the home directory 
+		location when a Win95/98 or NT Workstation logs into a Samba PDC.  
+		It allows you to do </para>
+		
+		<para><prompt moreinfo="none">C:\&gt; </prompt><userinput moreinfo="none">NET USE H: /HOME</userinput>
+		</para>
+
+		<para>from a command prompt, for example.</para>
+
+		<para>This option takes the standard substitutions, allowing 
+		you to have separate logon scripts for each user or machine.</para>
+
+		<para>This parameter can be used with Win9X workstations to ensure 
+		that roaming profiles are stored in a subdirectory of the user's 
+		home directory.  This is done in the following way:</para>
+
+		<para><command moreinfo="none">logon home = \\%N\%U\profile</command></para>
+
+		<para>This tells Samba to return the above string, with 
+		substitutions made when a client requests the info, generally 
+		in a NetUserGetInfo request.  Win9X clients truncate the info to
+		\\server\share when a user does <command moreinfo="none">net use /home</command>
+		but use the whole string when dealing with profiles.</para>
+
+		<para>Note that in prior versions of Samba, the <link linkend="LOGONPATH">
+		<parameter moreinfo="none">logon path</parameter></link> was returned rather than 
+		<parameter moreinfo="none">logon home</parameter>.  This broke <command moreinfo="none">net use 
+		/home</command> but allowed profiles outside the home directory.  
+		The current implementation is correct, and can be used for 
+		profiles if you use the above trick.</para>
+		
+		<para>This option is only useful if Samba is set up as a logon 
+		server.</para>
+
+		<para>Default: <command moreinfo="none">logon home = &quot;\\%N\%U&quot;</command></para>
+		<para>Example: <command moreinfo="none">logon home = &quot;\\remote_smb_server\%U&quot;</command>
+		</para></listitem>
