Hi,
though I am not sure what is the problem, here is what I understood from your description and the hint/solution from what I had done in my case. The end result was the user home folder list can be seen but only owner or administrator( if required) can open the folder.
the folder d:\users should be shared as say $users which will hide it from normal view.
then when creating use accounts following code was entered in profile in home folder location
drive letter say "p" , in path say \\file server or server where you want the shares to reside\$users\%user name%
now I am not sure if you want to hide other users home folder from being listed from this user/account or not , in any case this user can though see the other users folders in list of shares if he wants to but cannot access it.
In addition to it you can use a login script to map the user's home folder which then gives no reason to this user to browse the home folder location/server etc. He gets his home folder as P drive in his computer through this log in script . The script should contain first del P to remove the map and then create the map thereby preventing duplication. Then this script should be saved in common area in AD server which can be read by all AD users. This script is used in profile section user account creation ( active directory users and accounts) . Sorry I don't have the script in hand right now as i have left the AD administration role a year back . hope this helps you to start . Good luck

You can use access-based enumeration to hide folders for which a user does not have access:
