Hi,
yes, home directories are specified in the homeDirectory attribute as:

//amahoro/users/zingalo

but after logging this creates the same directory on the client and this 
is wrong.

The home directories must be mounted at login time and i wouldn't add a 
line on /etc/fstab for every home of every user on every client!!!
Do you know another way?
