I recently wrote a script to create multiple users in AD. One of the tasks I
would like to accomplish is assign and create home directories. While I have
been able to assign the drive letter and the path I would like to use I have
been unable to have the system create the folder. Basicly when if you open
the user object and select the Profile tab Connect is selected, the drive
letter is set to Z: and but the path remains \\server_name\Users\%username%.
I tried substituting the actual username for %username% but it still does not
create the directory. Will I have to create a File System Object to create
the folder before the path is assigned?
