[Samba] exec scripts question

exec works in global and share definitions.
I haven't tried what you are doing, but simply thinking out loud:
Could this be a permissions problem?
Is %U defined when you try to call it?
Can samba find the mkdir command? 
Is this a special problem for the [homes] share?
