How do I create user directories on a Win2003 server which uses Active Directory?

i.e.
On the server we have
C:\Users\Duncan
C:\Users\Christina etc.

and when a user logs on to the server that directory appears on their local machine as, for example, the H:\ drive?

If you are referring to connecting to the person's directory when they logon, you either have to use a logon script with "net use h: \\servername\users\%username%" or you must assign it in their ad user account on the profile tab - we use n: which maps to \\servername\staff\building\%username% - you would need to share the users directory with authenticated users to have read rights, if you use the profile to create/map the home directory when you create the account it will auto assign the proper permissions for that user's home directory.
