Wow, I Googled for 4 days searching for the answer you just provided: "obey pam restrictions = Yes"

I was pulling my hair out because samba.org, linuxquestions.org, and redhat.com all mention the pam_mkhomedir.so entry in /etc/pam.d/system-auth but stop there.

Allow me to try to key Google in on this page:

Samba/Active Directory integration
pam_mkhomedir.so
Automatically create home directories
winbind nsswitch.conf
smb.conf
LDAP

I would never have found this answer on my own, thank you.
