Hey Lisa,
That's all config management and software deployment- I need something
that PXE boots and installs baseline OS images.
5 people? Forget all this MAC nonsense, just write a script that tries
to connect to the SMB name twice a day (mid morn and mid afternoon)
and then mounts and backs up if it can. If it succeeds in the AM, skip
the PM one for a given PC.
If they can actually be trusted/convinced to do it, you can g
Hey James,
I don't envy you on this one, but I think you're on a good track.
Regarding the original question of how to tell if a particular PC is
connected or not, can the router's DHCP server be configured to give out
a fixed/static IP address according to the client's MAC address? Some

Lisa, Thanks for the code snippets and the direction.
Kevin,
I anticipated that I might get this response and I appreciate the
recommendations. I will look into backupPC. There are some pretty narrow
constraints that I am working with that have lead me to this direction.

I don't think it will affect any response you guys will offer but I changed
fstab.
I changed the mount points of the drives.

Well, it almost works. While it's booting now it says:

then it says to press S to skip or M to manually fix the error.
Then it goes to the login screen and if I try to login with my user the
screen blanks out and then resets back to the login screen. If I l

Just out of curiosity...
Is there a specific use case you are using to explain why you are
reinventing the wheel?
http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/faq/BackupPC.html
It would help to know exactly what you are trying to achieve that BackupPC
can't handle so we can find you a better solution.

Does anyone know if a Linux server can identify windows users connected to
the server through a Samba share, where Samba has not been configured as a
domain controller (i.e. samba is resolving user accounts with smbpasswd
only). Are the windows users always synced with a UNIX user?
