In Active Directory Users and Computers, you have to specify a roaming profile location in a given user's properties / on the Profiles tab.

Create and share a network location, like \\servername\profile$ for example, and in the ADUC user properties, enter \\servername\profile$\%username% for the profile location. This will enable roaming profile functionality for that user.
