This MS doc should cover what you need:

(there should be no spaces in the URL)
It talks about Exchange in there, but it applies if its there or not.

Once you have enabled individual profiles on the Windows 9x machines a copy of the profile is automatically stored in the users home directory (which is normally on a network server) and will consist of a number of files and a user.dat which is the Windows 9x equivalent of ntuser.dat.
Therefore to enable roaming profiles for Windows 9x machines nothing needs doing except the following:
1. Ensure all users are configured with a home directory on a network server (this is configured using User Manager - Profiles button in Windows NT 4.0)
2. Make sure the users have at least read, write and modify to their home directory areas otherwise the profile cannot be copied but no error will be given
But Remember , if the same user logs on to
Nt workstation he will not be able to get the same profile the reason being ,
the differences in the registry structure and the way Windows NT stores the user portion of the registry in the file NTUSER.DAT, Windows 9x stores in USER.DAT.
Good luck
