I haven't needed to do either of these...
I'm using the following scripts to mount and unmount shared NT user home
directories on a mount point in the users (linux) home directory.
I think that makes sense. :-)
To mount their NT home directory, the user runs the command 'mount-home'.
This then checks to see if the mount point exists and is not already
mounted. It then asks for their NT password and mounts the directory.
'unmount-home' does exactly what it says on the tin. :-)
I'm fairly sure both of these came from this list, but I can't remember
who originally posted them. Sorry.
