I'm working on a client setup for thin-client machines in an AD with about 2000 users. One of the requirements is that the server (an LTSP box) not store each and every user's home directory. All of our users have a Home Folder setting in their AD object, and I'd like to use samba to mount that as "home."

What works now:
smbd, nmbd, winbindd. Compiled Samba 3.0 onto a SuSE 9.0 box and have all the basic stuff configured. KDM lists all of the domain users "DOMAIN+username" and I can su to any of them from the shell. If I try to login to a KDE session, it won't work of course, because there's no home directory. But auth works right - if I give a bogus password, I get failed login error =]
Also, smbmount and smbclient work right, either with kerberos or via login prompt.


What I need to get working:
A switch so that any domain user logging on will automatically have home mapped to their share on the win2k server (we have 3 fileservers for the user accounts).


In an earlier message, Jerry pointed me to pam_mount.so, which I see in /lib/security, but I don't have any documentation on how to use it, and so far google hasn't brought any joy either. Can someone help?

Thanks!

Mike
