Unfortunately, the script is owned by my employer so I can't share it. But all I did was set up OpenLDAP, use the Official Samba HOWTO to configure the Linux server. Then on each Linux work station I just copy the pam_mount script there are modify /etc/nsswitch.conf and /etc/pam.d/xdm to support LDAP. I put the pam_mount script in cron to run nightly to syncronize with the Linux server. Then, the Linux desktops automatically mount the users data from /var/lib/samba/profiles/<username>/My Documents to /home/<user>/network_drive and unmount it when they log off. On Windows, you just join an NT4 style domain and then that's it. The Samba server instructs it to do roaming profiles. The profiles are stored in /var/lib/samba/profiles/<username> -- I use digital signatures and encryption. My key is stored at pgp.mit.edu key ID code: "0x8DB3BF09".
