I recently tested modifying users home
directories with ldifde and via a vbscript. In the homedirectory
attribute I specified \\servername\share\%username%.
The import works but when I look a the home directory field for the user in AD
U&C it does not show the variable as being resolved to the users name.
It still appears as \\servername\share\%username%.
If I remove the last %, then add it back and hit apply, the name is
instantly resolved. Manually adding the path and hitting apply resolves
the variable. Has anyone experienced this before? I can't figure out why the
variable is not resolved if it was added with a script or ldifde
file.
