Ubuntu 20.04 client no home dirs being created for domain users

So changing the IP by itself did not do the trick, i got the same error. /etc/security/pam_mount.conf.xml was changed to this: notice the $(USER) instead of $(DOMAIN_USER)

<volume user="$(USER)@nethserver.lan" fstype="cifs" server="10.0.0.2" path="%(USER)" mountpoint="/home/%(USER)" options="nosuid,nodev" /> <mkmountpoint enable="1" remove="true" />

This setting may collide with local users on the client.
I use following line in opensuse. User needs to be under options like options="user=...

<volume mountpoint="~" fstype="cifs" options="user=%(DOMAIN_USER),vers=2.0" server="192.168.0.2" path="%(DOMAIN_USER)"/>

Another way to join a client is this script based on CID.

su: failed to execute /usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server: No such file or directory

Maybe it helps to enable shell policy in server manager settings? See documentation.
