fix

Yes.  Directory and Resource Administrator (DRA) can create and manage home directories if the share in the home directory share path is hidden with the use of the $ suffix or hidden from the Browser service.  Ensure that the home directory Allowable Parent Path and the share being used in the user account include the $ hidden share suffix in the form /ShareName$ . For example:

A Users$ share located on c:\Home\Users on the computer HOUSTONSERVER01  requires the following Allowable Parent Path:

\\HOUSTONSERVER01\c:\Home\Users$

Create this share on a user account using the following path:

\\HOUSTONSERVER01\Users$\%username%
