I use a login script to map all other network drives.
Their home drive letter is done through the AD.
Are you using a W2k domain? I've seen this before but don't recall the
resolution...
Do you have the same problem if you use something like
net use z: /home ?
and/or
net use z: \\server\home\%username% ?
....presuming you're using a batch file? (I like to append /persistent:no as
well)
All users have Full Control to their own home directory.
All Domain users have List Folder contents to the root home directory.
Everyone has Full Control to the home share.
That should be fine.
It can't be a permissions issue if it works sometimes but not others.
Agreed.
When this error occurs, what path do you see specified in the the
%homeshare% variable (type 'set' in a command prompt)?
How many DCs do you have, and does it make any difference which DC
authenticated them? (you can see this in Set as well).
As mentioned, I've seen this before - I've searched and found a couple of
people with the same problem. This looked interesting:

All users in my Active Directory domain have a home folder
configured in AD to automatically attach their z: drive to
\\server\home\username where home is the name of the share on the
server.
Frequently when clients login to the domain from XP Pro computers
that have just been rebooted, their z: drive gets mapped to
\\server\home instead of \\server\home\username. If they logout and
login again, the mapping is correct. This only happens on XP. All
2000 Pro clients always get mapped correctly.
Any ideas?
Do you use a login script?
What permissions do your users have on the "home" share, and what
permissions do they have on their own subfolder
.
