But wait, there's more. If you download now, we will give you the
samba-doc package also, which will allow you access to a .reg file you
can use on Windows XP Pro, so you can also join it to the domain. If you
order now, we will also throw in the samba-winbind package (which would
normally cost you an arm and a leg in setup time), which will allow you
to join your Mandrake box to a windows domain and have it act as though
it were a windows 2000 member server (just more stable of course). See
the docs at http://mandrakeuser.org/connect/csamba5.html
Please also take a look at http://mandrakeuser.org/connect/csamba6.html
for more info on running a domain controller (roaming profiles, login
scripts etc), and report anything that is not clear. Windbind setup got
easier a while back (2.2.3a-1mdk), so I will need to update that ...
