Users have a home directory that's shared through the Open Directory Server. How can I mount the Users Network Home Folder and have it show in my users docks?

Thanks

I think you can use configuration profiles.
There's a Logon Items payload that allows your to do that, that mounts the network share you want at login.

YMMV, but we usually discourage automagically mounting servers.

AD binding has the feature to add Network Home to Dock/Desktop:

Not sure if this can be set using a Configuration Profile on Macs that are already bound to AD (or OD in your case)?
