User Home folder and Profile folder creation

Just wondering if anyone could point me to a resource/document that

explains the industry best practices for creating user folders in 2003

server?

Essentially I'm looking to automate as much of the process as

possible, as right now I’m adding and configuring the permissions on

the home and Profile folders manually – and this needs to change.

Perhaps there's a Microsoft Document that highlights their recommended

model from the ground up? Can't say I've come across it yet though.

T.I.A.
