W2003 profiles broken after password change

I hope I'm posting to the right group, if not please let me know...

Running Windows 2003 server, clients are all XP Pro SP2 and 3 mixed. Long
story short:

As far as I can tell the following holds true:

User's account is set to require a change of password at the next login.
User logs on to workstation, and is prompted to change password.
User successfully changes password, and logs in.
User's Lotus Note's icon points to C: drive, My Documents does not appear to
remap to server.
User logs out, logs into different machine, Lotus Note icon correctly points
to H: drive, My Documents appear to map correctly.
User logs out, logs back into machine where password change was performed.
User desktop is still default, Lotus Notes icon points to C:.

Log into any workstation other than the one where the password was changed
and the user login works fine.

A couple of things I have noticed:
On machines where the user password was changed, a local profile is created
for the user. User profiles on the local workstation have two options, local
or roaming. Profiles on the workstation other than the user with the password
change are set to roaming. You can check user profiles by going to My
Computer -> Properties -> Advanced -> User Profiles -> Settings. The profile
for the user whose password was changed is set to local, with roaming grayed
out. Neither logging in as the Domain Administrator or the local
administrator account will allow the profile to be changed to roaming or, for
that matter, deleted. Only once the user has logged into another workstation
can you then delete the local profile on the original machine (logged in as
an admin).

I downloaded a hot fix from MS (KB Article Number(s): 821425) but can't get
it to install on the server, unable to locate update.inf.

Any thoughts?
