[Samba] Auto Create user home directory

[M Azer]

I have created the Domain folder "CAD" where all the users home should be
created under. however I still can't create a new  user in win 2003 AD and
have the home folder be created automatically - I still have to create the
home folder first then create the user. does it have anything to do with
pam.d directory? any modification need to be done there?
