Dynamic mount of Active Directory Share


I have many Xbuntu clients they log on to a Active directory network with Likewise. All of these client computers could have any of 100 different users log on to them at any time. I need to map the users AD share automatically on the desktop or in GVFS places. I have tried using the gvfs-mount command but it calls for entering the users name and password. I have thought of creating a bash file and using the mount command with the USER global variable but I am not aware of a global variable for the password.

As these users are being authenticated by AD the user name and passwords are not stored in advanced on the local machines.
