Samba shares and logging in

2006-03-22 Thread Vayu
In windows when I have the same user account on two machines, neither needs to 
login to access the share.  With Samba I have to use the username/password.  
The XP machine can get straight into the FreeBSD machine (which has the same 
username and password) but the FreeBSD machine needs to login to access the 
XP share.

Are there any Samba settings that would allow the FreeBSD machine the ability 
to access shares without logging in if (and only if) the user exists on both 
computers?

You can configure a samba server to be a domain controller/active 
directory  slave and get the login credentials from the windows 
server.  You can add a script to create the accounts on the samba server if 
they do not already exist.
