Assuming that is a problemm... It's not for me. It's not an autofs problem. It's the user space problem to figure that. Winbind is one possibility, but other's are possible. In some settings u can simply use the same name and assume the same name goes for windows. In other cases you can use a mapping table in the script that automount calls. Autofs should just provide the local uid,gid from the calling process. -- robin _______________________________________________ autofs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://linux.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/autofs
