I have documented this in detail in Chapter 6 of my new book, "Samba-3 by Example", ISBN: 0131472216. This book will be available in April and can be pre-ordered from Amazon.Com now. In summary, you need to create a group profile, set the appropriate permissions inside it using the Windows XP profiles migration tool, then install it in your PDC netlogon share (in the root directory) in a folder called 'Default Profile'. The whole procedure is a little more complicated. The book is your best choice for now. - John T. -- John H Terpstra Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
