Hi
I got the authentication working, once I got it, I was unable to logon
from command line using "Domain-name"\username, I wanted the login gui
back, because I have seen it on other desktops that you can actually get
to choose which domain you want to login to. I installed the vmware
tools but same thing, still no login gui.

Hi,
I am running one instance of Suse10.3, no problems there, since
installation, I never got the login screen on gui mode, didn't care
much, till now that I need to try to authenticate to a Windows
domain, and I can't logon as a windows user to a suse desktop, I am
trying to get to know how I can enable the login gui, unless there is
a way to logon as a windows user from the command line?
Just so I'm clear, you're running openSUSE 10.3 in VMware and would like
to enable Windows domain based authentication? [At the moment you don't
have the GUI login - which is weird, because the VMware tools with the
SUSE kernel-source, make, and gcc installed make that really easy]
You should be able to go into YaST - Network Services - Windows Domain
Membership and follow the steps to join the SUSE system to the Windows
domain and set up Windows domain based authentication. It's really
quite straightforward and works for both NT4 style domains and Active
Directory domains.
You'll need to make sure that your 10.3 VM can communicate with the
domain, and that name resolution is working correctly - but assuming
all that is ok, it should 'just work'.
