Perhaps I should have been a bit more explicit, having a
'unixHomeDirectory' attribute containing '\\server\%username%' will not
work, it is expected to contain something like '/home/rowland' i.e. the
path to the home directory belonging to Rowland. Unix would not identify
backslashes, it expects forward slashes , it wouldn't be able to
understand '%username%' either
