logon home (G)

This parameter specifies the home directory location when a Win95/98 or 
NT Workstation logs into a Samba PDC. It allows you to do

C:\> *NET USE H: /HOME*

from a command prompt, for example.

This option takes the standard substitutions, allowing you to have 
separate logon scripts for each user or machine.
