samba - Dec 2003 - XP home edition and Home share

I can't get the XP home edition on my network to accept "net use H:
/home".
It works on my Win2000 box. I am running samba 2.2.5
Is this a limitation on the home edition? Is there a work round?
The command
net user %username% /DOMAIN
for a valid username does return data which includes the path to the home
share, so I can't see why it should not work.

The command:

net use somedrive: /home

works just on domain members, which could find the home share at logon
procedure from Domain controler. (e)X(tra)P(rofit) home edition cannot
be a domain member! So it has NO knowledge of home!
