samba - Dec 2020 - winbind question

I have a question. I've got a network I'm setting up where samba is 
acting as an AD DC on one machine and other machines will authenticate 
against it. So, how do I set winbind to create the user's home directory 
if it doesn't exist? OR should that be done by a pam module?

Thanks!

Depends how they will connect, if they are logging directly into 
computer, then you can use PAM to create the home directory, if they are 
connecting via Samba, then you will need to use a 'root preexec' script 
to create the home directory.
