Two profiles for same user? Weird problem

We have our clients logging into a Citrix Metaframe
Server running Win2000 Server. The servername is
METAFRAME

For some of the clients, when we look at the profiles in
the C:\docs & settings\ it lists their profile twice.

For example, for user Joe Smith, we find the following:

C:\Documents & Settings\jsmith
C:\Documents & Settings\jsmith.METAFRAME


SO basically its adding a second profile with the
extension of the servername.

Any idea why it is doing this?
 
The jsmith is probably their domain profile and the jsmith.metaframe will be
the local profile (connections to ts logon locally to the ts)
You can also see this on client machines some if they also logon to their
local machines as well to the domain. Depending on the order they logon
after their accounts are first created (ie, domain logon first or local
machine logon first) those will be on the local machines too.
You could set up roaming TS profiles for those users if you wanted to save
all of those in one central location.
