Hi
Un-join the domain with Likewise, add the unixHomeDirectory attribute to 
your domain users wherever you want their home directory to reside.
If all your users have a folder in a certain pattern, it may be possible 
to use one configuration for them all. Join the domain with a correctly 
configured smb.conf. Then there's a choice of how to retrieve the nss 
information. We can then help you.
Needinfo.
