I created a share on my server
\\server\Users$
When i go to a userprofile under profile tab
I map their home drive
M \\server\users$\%username%
I click on apply the folder automaticaly got created on the network share.
But the permissions were that of the creator which is me the domain admin.
The thing is the folder does not get created on user logon
