This *really* is off-topic, for both samba and openldap lists (but it is
useful for people running winbind or nss_ldap), but all you need is (on
systems with pam_stack and most files in /etc/pam.d/ setup to stack
/etc/pam.d/system-auth) something like the following line in
/etc/pam.d/system-auth:

session     required      /lib/security/pam_mkhomedir.so skel=/etc/skel/
umask=0022

The articles Tim is referring to may be of interest (but I really need
to get around to updating them ...), and can be found at
