If I'm not mistaken....Fiesty will use LDAP. User creation will change, however I can say that the scripts already exist from the smbldap-installer project (http://majen.net/smbldap) ....hopefully GUI's will be written for them. Ogra also mentioned (I forget what it is) an LDAP frontend that may be included with Fiesty. (Orga knows a lot more about what will happen than I do) The intent, and I helped advocate for it....is to make user creation, password creation (if you wish) and so forth....very easy to do. I'm a user, a teacher, and a sysadmin....and I'm lazy ;-) I want it to be easy.... As my mom used to say.... "You spend 3 hours trying to invent an easier way to do a 3 minute job" ;-)
