If users will log on to computers running Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 2000, but not to computers running Windows NT 3.x, then the user profile path does not need a file name.
If users will log on to computers running Windows NT 3.x as well as to computers running Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 2000, then the user profile path must contain a file name. The file name can be that of a roaming user profile (.usr) or a mandatory user profile (.man), such as:
\\airedale\profiles\clerks.man
