'net groupmap add' works for Samba 3 (at least from 3.0.7 on, my experience up to 3.0.11). It works once and for all for all workstations, even new ones that you add to the domain - you don't have to keep on doing it. This is where the ldapsam backend and using GQ as an LDAP GUI is such a help; you can see at a glance exactly what you've done and even use GQ and the Samba tools to start all over again if you've made a mistake. Your problem is, that you can't see the results of what you're doing and why it isn't working. --Tonni -- mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.billy.demon.nl -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
