If you want to use the special [homes] share then you can use winbindd, 
which understands it. The default directory is then /home/DOMAIN/%USERNAME%

If you don't want to use winbind, then you can store the 
unixHomeDirectory attribute (along with the other stuff Linux needs) in 
the directory and pull it out by mapping it to homeDirectory using nss. 
This method also has the advantage in that _you_  choose where the users 
home directory will be, not winbindd.
