Could some one be so kind as to tell me how to disable roaming profiles on a Samba Domain Contoller? Or, point me to the correct source of information for this subject?

You should be able to locate the information you need in:
http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/ProfileMgmt.html#id420135

You will need to find and comment out using the # the following section in your smb.conf:

# logon path = \\%N\profiles\%U
# Default logon drive is Z:
# logon drive = H:
# This requires a PROFILES share that is world writable.

Remember to have a copy of each user's profile locally cached at each machine before making this change at the samba server.
