We in our company use logon scripts to map drives, and I personally
consider it the best solution. For the home directories we had to set
browseable = yes in the [homes] section and we map it this way:
NET USE H: \\SERVER\HOMES
It has a drawback, very little though, that the home directory appears
twice in Network Neighborhood: both as <username> and HOMES.
You can also use:
NET USE \\SERVER\HOMES /HOME, or something alike, but I haven't tested
it.
