Can't load profile - file name too long

Hi,
When I log in, I get a message that my raoming profile canot be loaded
and a temporary profile would be created. Windows creates a "TEMP"
user. The reason given is that Windows cannot copy a file from
"//server_name\profiles\user_name\some_folder\file_with_very_long_name"
to "c:\documents and
settings\user_name\some_folder\file_with_very_long_name".
In the local PC, I deleted the file in question and re-booted. I though
the profile would get updated. It didn't.
On the server, when I go to profiles\user_name\some_folder, I can see
the file with very long name but cannot rename or delete it. It says to
check the path and file name. I re-booted the server, booted in safe
mode but still can't delete it. I ran chkdsk /f, no change.
I would really appreciate it if someone can suggest some course of
action.
