AD Network Home not appearing in Dock

Hi all,

I'm currently testing Tiger client AD binding and while I have no trouble logging in as an AD user in Tiger and accessing SMB shares via Kerberos single-sign-on, my SMB AD Network Home Directory does not automount into the Dock.

All I have done is configure the AD Plugin thus:

localhome -disable
use UNC SMB paths
left mappings untouched
used a preferred domain server
no mobile account stuff

Also, when I use dscl userWithName: myAccountHere

it shows
home: /Users/myAccountHere

which suggests the plugin is definitely not seeing the AD Network Home.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This testing in lieu of using Tiger server (on Xserve) to bind to the AD server so Mac clients can logon using the AD accounts but be managed by MCX under Tiger server.

As this is education I'm wondering how I will get all the shares I want them to access on the Windows side to automount?

Cheers in advance
