Do you really want to apply the XP registry hack to 800 clients? Although, it may no longer be necessary if you're using 3.0. Does anyone know?
what hack are you talking about? (I'm really interested in doing this since I've posted several questions on this same list before).
My approach was like this :
- Samba 3 server - Windows XP client machines - Roaming profiles stored on the server - The client machines execute a script on logon that tries to load a specially customized .reg file, but fails doing it because the user that logs won't have priviledges enough to modify the registry (entries con "hkey_current_user - HKU" or similar)
this didn't work... any ideas? :-)
The hack I'm refering to involves turning off the 'Sign or Seal' option in the registry of Windows XP because Samba 2.2.x didn't support this feature.
