With the Active Directory plug-in, users do indeed get a local home
directory.
Are you sure you don't want to use SMB home directories?
Are you sure your users are getting a temporary folder? By default,
the Active Directory plug-in creates local home folders.
Unfortunately, if you want to update the contents of
/System/Library/User Template/English.lproj,
you need to make the modifications
on every local machine.
The changes you make in this directory only affect home directories
which have not yet been created.

Since the users aren't on the local computer, Panther
of course makes a home directory for them on the fly
which is what I want. Somehow though, when users
log into the machine, they are defaulted to a
temporary folder I created for getting all the prefs
and making all my application settings. I want them
to have their home directory be the default as can
be seen when you first open the hard drive.
I'm pretty sure I need to deal with a file in
/system/library/"user template"/english.lproj
