[Samba] Why is an extra 'home' dir showing up?

My question is, how come daevid (on XP) sees the following directories:
\\linux\dae51d
\\linux\homes

Shouldn't there just be the home dir only? Why does "\\linux\dae51d"
show up (I assume it's b/c that's who I am logged in as on XP which maps
to linux)? However, the fact that it does show up, shouldn't it be the
actual HOME directory of the linux user account dae51d (as in
/home/dae51d/)? Instead, it is exactly the same as the "/home" directory
when I click on it.
