My problem is that I need to figure out how to have each user's home
folder on the Ubuntu boxes map to the users home folder on the windows
2003 server. The share location of their home folders on the windows
2003 server is something like \\servername\docs$\students\%username%.
I'm not even sure if I can map to a hidden share "$" in samba and also
specify the %username% variable.
The simplest solution would be to simply mount \\servername\docs$ or
possibly \\servername\docs$\students\ (From memory, you can't mount a
directory under linux, only a share). You could then setup symlinks or
change the home directory for the users. This would be much simpler than
having a seperate mount for every user.
If you really want to do it your way, it may be possible using a mixture
of sudo, backticks (`) and the whoami command. I really don't see any
benefit though.
