I have toyed with the idea of adding hooks that would allow the administrator to create such links automatically when the user logs in - indeed the original author of the UTMP support has wanted this for a while, for exactly this reason. In the meantime, just adding a smb directory and links to /dev/null will do the job nicely :-) This could be considered a bug in finger as much as anything :-) Andrew Bartlett -- Andrew Bartlett [EMAIL PROTECTED] Manager, Authentication Subsystems, Samba Team [EMAIL PROTECTED] Student Network Administrator, Hawker College [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://samba.org http://build.samba.org http://hawkerc.net
