I am by no means an expert, but I believe you can achieve both NT authentication AND outlook compatibility.
The first would be done using: smbclient -j [+options] This would allow you to connect to a domain server. The second is said to be possible using Evolution and Ximian Connector (http://www.ximian.com/products/connector/download.html) I have not used connector, as we are a Notes shop. Best of luck!

Now I'm working on a site in ireland with only win-nt computers connected with roaming profiles to servers in germany :( I was wondering if Samba can be used to connect to such a win-nt network and transfer the files I need to transfer. Is the ftp-like samba client the only possibility and how to do this, if the IP-address is being changed all the time I logon because of a DHCP-connection? What about encryption of passwords, since I don't have any rights to change something on the win-nt server side (I've read something in the doc about switching off encryption on the windows side - at least for win98 clients in the standard config, where samba is used as a server) Is there a possiblity to connect to a microsoft exchange server to fetch my emails, rather than converting MS outlook pst-files after a couple of months to mbox-files? thanks axel -- GMX - Die Kommunikationsplattform im Internet. http://www.gmx.net -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
