You didn't add the Domain Users group? There are a couple of other groups you have to add too. Go away and read the most of the important docs, and when they don't work, come back and tell us what and why. It might help to add your OS/distro and Samba version. --Tonni -- Nothing sucksseeds like a pigeon without a beak ... mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.billy.demon.nl They'll love us, won't they?

RE: [Samba] a few questions
One more thing you might want to consider besides roaming profiles for the SMB PDC (which will handle your user mappings, etc) is to look at Novel ZenWorks... > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of D.

RE: [Samba] a few questions
The best place that I can send you to answer most all of you questions is http://samba.idealx.org and read the PDF they have for setting up a Samba PDC environment. If you plan to use Novell NDS/eDirectory for the backend (LDAP) then beware, there are many caveats. setting up the sambaAccount object for users does not currently work with the supplied SMBLDAP scripts, and setting up users by hand is a bear. I'm running a Netware network with Win2K workstations and wanted to be able to have network Win logins rather than creating a separate login for each employee on each workstation. And Novell was not cooperating with me for using it as an LDAP backend for Samba. What I wound up doing is setting up a Samba/OpenLDAP PDC to handle the domain accounts and sync NDS & Win2K logins, so when they change their passwords on the workstation the novell client changes it in eDirectory and the SMBLDAP-passwd.pl script from IdealX handles the SMB passwords... so far it's pretty fluid. It just means you have to enter people in two separate locations as far as user accounts, but once that's done it's pretty simple management. I think the SMB/LDAP/PDC setup is how you will want to go... -Tori > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of D.
