> The homes share must have /home/%D as the path.  /home/%D/%U, and blank does not work.  This connects the user to a share named after the login ID, but double-clicking that share shows all of the folders in the /home/%D path rather than just the contents of the user's folder.  Which makes sense, but why doesn't /home/%D/%U or a blank entry work?

A blank entry should work - in what way does it 'not work'?  Try
2.2.6rc2 - a stat() check has been removed that might have caused the
problem.  Samba 3.0 has even more advanced logic here.

No username share appears upon connecting to the server.  Can't map it either.

I'm intending to put this server into production within the next week or two, so I'd like to avoid using a non-production release.  When is the next production release due, or is the current rc stable enough for production use?

Thanks.
