Look in the docs for winbind. Winbind allows you to have windows domain users on the unix system without creating "real" unix accounts. In addition to the windows domain users being able to access files that are globally readable on the unix system, you can set user/group ownership of the files to the windows domain users and restrict permissions appropriately. ~ Daniel ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This message is the property of Time Inc. or its affiliates.
