Hi,

I am not sure about how OpenLdap works, but perhaps you
should try creating the user account and home directory manually
by using the command "useradd -m [loginname]" prior to setting
up or dealing with the OpenLdap.

Unless this issue only happens with a few acccounts, you should
check the permissions ( particularly the execute permission ) on the
directory '/home' itself. Just a feeble suggestion.
