are you asking how to create a mobile home directory on the managed client (laptop) itself? or how to create them in the server?

if its how to create a PHD (portable home directory) on the client itself, you can’t. You manage that via WGM. You select either the user/computer/group that you want to assign to PHD, click preferences, mobility, and “always” in account. There are many other options here that you can assign as well. Once this is setup and the client is bound to your OD server the client will be able to login. The mac should then ask if they want to create their mobile home. That’s it.

And of course you want to make sure that you have a home directory assigned and created, and populated in WGM first.

Unfortunately there’s a big old ZIP in the logs. No errors to speak of in both the client and the server. I checked all Open Directory logs via Server Admin, and all /Library/Logs/Directory Services in the client.

Any other suggestions?

Where is the login window password validation set?

We too are having the same problem. It appears as though apple has gone after market with the current rail solution as it just is not up to the typical esthetic standards that we usually see.
