Roaming Profile Event ID 1000 and Error 5

Q1: Today one of my servers from terminal servers farm has a problem with copying user profiles, usera are not getting their profiles instead of this they are getiting temporary profiles with name like TEMP.DOMAIN. Folder
redirection policy for this user seems to work fine.

An error is logged in the Application log

===================
Event Type: Error
Event Source: Userenv
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1000
Date: 2003-09-02
Time: 10:53:03
User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
Computer: Description:
Windows cannot load the profile and is logging you on with a temporary profile. Changes you make to this profile will be lost when you log off.
====================

also strange error in system log occurs
===========
Event Type: Error
Event Source: DCOM
Event Category: None
Event ID: 10009
Date: 2003-09-02
Time: 10:28:22
User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
Computer:
Description:
DCOM was unable to communicate with the computer <computer name> using any
of the configured protocols.
===========

but I doubt that this is connected with this.

On other servers in farm all works just fine.

When I log on I can browse network and server where profiles are stored and I can get to the user profile folder so this isn't permissions problem.

Maybe this is a problem with something else and problems with profiles are only symptoms of this main problem

I'm not an administrator of this server but I'm servicing it in a case of emergency - sys admin from this company claims that nothing has bee changed on this server yesterday and few days earlier and I have to trust him in
this.

Q2: OK, little self auto update
In Userenv.log I have following entries when users logs on and logs off
========
USERENV(16cc.14bc) 11:40:41:096 ReconcileDirectory: Failed to copy over the

A1: You have a few Error #5's in there, which are an indication of an access denied or permissions error. Can
you verify the permissions are correct on the profile directories?

Q3: In the mean i've resolved this issue. I know that this entry in log indicate some problem with access permission, but I can't figure out what was a cause of this problems. After eliminating few posible sources I turn off antivirus software (which is eTrust 7.0) and all start to work properly.

This was a human mistake - administrator of this network trys to impreve network security by tunnikg etrust configurationa and he puts no extension files on imediatly blocking list (without checking). This results in
blocking access to all directories.
