Again, this is a Linux issue!
You need to identify the default home directory for pam_mkhomedir. I think
it is defined in /etc/default/useradd.
Make sure the default path exists. In the default home create a directory
for your NT Domain name. Now your user home directories should appear in
it.
My memory is NOT too clear on the finer points since it is over 2 years
since I did this.
