Jim: I have looked at the site. At first I was concerned about the security of using PGina instead of a regular Windows logon, but I posted on the forum and received some good responses there that convinced me that it is at least as secure as windows logon. Now comes the implementation! Unfortunately, I can only do it on the weekend as I think it will take some time for me to get it to work and we cannot have the network down while I'm trying to get it to work. Pgina from afar looks like a great program. I will give it a try. Paul

Passwords. Even if you only use pGina to trap password changes, you get a chance at the plain-text password without having some other funky interface, just the standard ctrl+alt+del chage password. pGina allows chaining of ginas (which is actually what is supposed to happen, but most gina authors implement this incorrectly), so you can still use windows auth if you want. Anyway, Paul, have you tried the pgina site? Nate is usually very helpful. ---------------------------- Jim McDonough IBM Linux Technology Center Samba Team 6 Minuteman Drive Scarborough, ME 04074 USA jmcd at us dot ibm dot com jmcd at samba dot org Phone: 1-877-228-1846 IBM tie-line: 349-5335 -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
