domain admin profile settings lost on logoff/reboot
It might work by having a separate volume for home folders. Trouble is that would add an arbitrary hard limit on the size of both volumes. Shot in the dark (cause I would not want to use roaming profiles of that size nor would I want to put a quota on the users's documents but I realize some might need to)

Roaming profiles and Vista
Roaming profiles are in use. Users do roam, and until migration is complete, roaming profiles must interoperate between XP & Vista. But for notebooks, it does not work when they're offline. When they're offline, the Favorites folder can't be accessed, because, per this article--

User profiles
Your profiles need to be kept *tiny* if you want them to roam successfully. Additionally, roaming profiles are not compatible between OS Versions, so I don't know that your Vista user will be able to roam to other PCs, or that your XP users will be able to work at the Vista workstation. Personally, I like to keep

Problems wirth Roaming profiles - error 1521
The permissions minimum on the profile folder must be Read for the Everyone group. If these are not correctly set you will find GPOs will not work when a space if we don't have to support roaming profiles for every user.

Roaming Profile Issues
I logged onto Vista "Machine" 1 from my home XP machine using Remote Desktop. It took a long time to log on, like there was a large roaming profile loading. When it came up, the old icons were back. When I logged in locally at work the next day, I deleted all the files from the dekstop again and forgot all about it

Only problem I've found with that is the Quick Launch toolbar gets displayed twice on W2K after the profile's (often for all models from the same mfr), will get you through. Vista will have much network installs; that may finally change my procedures.
