[Samba] clients logout and client creating users

2004-03-16 Thread Max Waterman
Hi,

Two questions, only slightly related to SAMBA :

1) when I have logged into my Samba server (rh9) from
a W2K or XP 
client, how can I log out again so that I can log in
as someone else. I 
know logging out of W2K/XP will work, but I would like
to log out of the 
SAMBA server w/o logging out of W2K/XP. My Mac OS X
client has an 
'eject' button which I can use - something similar to
that is what I am 
after.

2) We have a W2K server as PDC. The admin for that m/c
has mentioned 
that it is always a chore to create users each term
when new students 
arrive (we're a small school). He noticed how easily I
created users on 
our RH9 box, which also runs SAMBA in the same domain
as a file server. 
Is there a way I can use the scripting capabilities of
the RH9 box 
(perl, for example) to create users on the W2K PDC?

Max.

If you're using Samba 3.0, you might be able to do something
with the net rpc user add command.
