Dear All,
I want to setup a file server with a home directory for every user on
the shared folder. i want to make such that whenever a user logs on, a drive
gets mapped to his home folder and only that user has access to this folder.
other users should not have access to this.
My main concern is permissions.

Warm Regards,

Here is the usual method:
1. Create a folder d:\Shares\SVarma on the server.
2. Set its NTFS permissions so that SVarma can use it but no-one else.
3. Create a share SVarma that is points to d:\Shares\SVarma.
4. Insert this line into your logon script: net use P: \\YourServer\SVarma.

Dear Pegasus,
I want the users folder to be created as soon as he logs on so that only
he would be having permissions to it. also i would not be required to give
the permissions explicitly.

You can build the appropriate commands (md, netshare=, cacls)
into your logon script. However, I do not this is a good idea.
Shares should be created by administrators and permissions
should be set by administrators. If you let users do it then
someone will find a way to get into someone else's shares.
