It's not that simple.

For me to be able to log in (on my desktop in a LAN), I need at least
NFS (ie portmap, nfslock) and autofs up and running. For a disconnected
LDAP setup (see the article on mandrakesecure.net), I need LDAP up and
running too (otherwise is is not possible to login, or show user lists
if using user lists on the dm).

So, maybe a "Windows XP home" type scenario and a "Windows XP Pro in
Windows domain"-type scenario.

Buchan
