ID Vault, Notes Shared Logon, Roaming

Domino version 8.5.1 FP4 client and servers.
Mail servers AIX 64bit, Admin server Win 2003 SP3 64bit.

we have had issues trying to get users IDs to pull down from the vault.
when a user logs on to a workstation for the first time, they are prompted for their username and server name. They input these details and then are prompted for their user id. When we tested this process in our pilot, the user was only prompted for the username and server and the ID automatically downloaded from the vault.
We are using a scribable setup as per Lotus recommendation utilizing the setup.txt file with the parameters to poplulate the correct information.
We have implemeted alot of the suggestions that were given by Lotus through the PMRs we raised. But nothing is working. Do you have any further suggestions regarding why a user is not being able to pull down their ID. This is very important as we are also roaming our users.

2. Roaming (what a nightmare!). We are using Domino roaming. We have enabled our users to roam, however, when they log on to another machine, they are prompted with the configuration in Notes. their ID is not pulled from the ID vault.
Currently our environment has been setup as follows:

Shared Notes Logon is enabled.
Scriptable setup is being used. setup.txt file with the following text:
Username= Sharon bourne
Domino.Name=BWAMAIL02
Domino.Address=BWAMAIL02.********.com
Domino.Port=TCPIP
Domino.Server=1
AdditionalServices=-1
Replication.Schedule=1

A clean notes.ini has been stored under the "All Users" profile with the following lines:

[Notes]
ConfigFile=\\NOTESCONFIG.RTDOMAU.LOCAL\USERCONFIG\%USERNAME%\CONFIG.TXT
KitType=1
SharedDataDirectory=C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Lotus\Notes\Data\Shared
InstallType=6
InstallMode=1
NotesProgram=C:\Program Files\IBM\Lotus\Notes\

we have been hearing conflicting information regarding using Shared Notes Logon and roaming. Can you please clarify if there is indeed an issue with using Shared Notes logon and roaming in Domino.

Can you please clarify the complete workflow connection between ID vault, roaming and shared notes logon.
