Script to create user's AD home directory

[bazzacad]

I have this shell script I used to run on my Linux file server to create a new user's home directory.

Code:

HOMEDIR="/mnt/share/homes/STA/$1"

if [ -d $HOMEDIR ]; then
    echo "Home directory $HOMEDIR already exists"
else
    echo "Creating home directory $HOMEDIR"
    mkdir $HOMEDIR
fi
echo

echo "Fixing $HOMEDIR ownership and permissions"
chmod -R 0700 $HOMEDIR
chown -R $1:"domain users" $HOMEDIR
echo

But since I can't run chmod or chown from the FreeNAS CLI how do others create new users or work around this?

If you have the share with the path "/mnt/share/homes" flagged as a 'home' share in the FreeNAS UI, enable "obey pam restrictions". pam_mkhomedir will automatically create the directory when they connect to the share

Yes, it's set as the home share in the UI.
Do I add that to the Auxiliary Parameters?
How do I pass skel=/path/to/skel/directory to pam_mkhomedir?
