Wrong file owner set on new files and folders

I am using vista ultimate 32bit and have my documents redirected onto
a server share. The server share has the permissions setup correctly
to automatically create the folder upon login for me and other users
and set the correct permissions. I have UAC turned off. From XP, if a
user logs in, theri redirected my docs folder is created and they are
the owner of any new folder/files created under that folder. But, when
loggins in from vista and new files/folders created have
administrators as the owner...Any thoughts why? This obviously creates
problems when the user is not an administrator.

bump...Anyone?? Can anyone out there attempt to replicate the problem?
A user creates a folder/file in a redirected location and they are not
the owner, Administrators is.???
