[Samba] SaMBa 4.0.x homedir mapping - is possible without user account in system?

[Ricky Nance]

https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/Winbind Here is a link on how to
setup nsswitch.conf and winbind links. Please note that you will need to
find your current libnss files and place the symlinks with them (/lib may
not be the correct path, in my case Ubuntu 12.04, they are in
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu). After adding those links and modifying the
nsswitch.conf, you might want to add :

        template homedir = /home/%ACCOUNTNAME%

to your smb.conf to make winbind a little happier (it defaults to
/home/%WORKGROUP%/%ACCOUNTNAME%).

Good luck,
Ricky
