This is my first large scale MacBook deployment and I am having a few issues I hope someone can help with.
First one:
I am binding to AD, but I do not want to pull the desktop folder to the mobile computers. If I uncheck the "Use UNC path..." option in Directory utility it solves my problem, but I cannot figure out how to deploy this to all the Macbooks.
Any help appreciated
PS I am running 10.8

You'll want to use dsconfigad
have a look at it's man page and look for the -useuncpath flag

Running dsconfigad -useuncpath disable should disable the UNC path setting in the Apple AD plug-in. The command will need to be run with root privileges.
