[Samba] Domain Member Server on Samba 3 with LDAP

[mallapadi niranjan]

Hi all

I have a Samba 3 PDC with LDAP, i want to configure another
Linux system as File server where all users home directories and other
shares
will be there. which i want to use with PDC,
I have made the file server as Domain Member server to my PDC . The
configuration files are below

A user when created in PDC using smbldap-useradd , i want the home directory
to be created in file server .
my domain is testdomain.com

but when use smbldap-useradd -a -m -C \\fsrv01\test test
the user test home directory is created in PDC itself, i have to manually
create the home directory in file server then
only i am able to access using PATH \\fsrv01\test

How can i add the user using smbldap-useradd so that home directory is
created in my file server and not in PDC.

in the file server, i have RHEL 4.0 and samba 3
For uid and Gid mapping, i have modified ldap.conf file in file server
