You can check a user's home directory by querying LDAP with ldapsearch
(targeting the homeDirectory attribute) or by simply running getent passwd
<username> to see the system's resolved entry.
Run a manual query similar to the example below (updating the parameters as
needed), or use ldapvi for a more interactive approach.

```
ldapsearch -x -D "cn=Directory Manager" -H ldaps://<fqdn> -W -s sub -b
cn=users,cn=accounts,dc=<fld>,dc=<tld> uid=matteo homeDirectory
```

Best,
/m
