[Samba] winbind template homedir liimitations
Hi Is it possible to specify more than one template homedir = xxx in smb.conf? Everyone seems to have their Linux home directories created in the same folder, which makes administration difficult. We'd like to organise users into sub folders. Cheers, Steve -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba

It could be useful for me, too, if possible (say: to have a web-home dir for some users, on a separate share than their data-home). But I couldn't define a clear semantic for multiple [homes], even if at all possible.

You can differentiate on the domain and other info, replacing parts of path with macros. Maybe not much, but it's a start.

What we are doing at the moment with Samba4 is storing the unixHomeDirectory attribute in the directory and pulling it back out with nss-pam-ldapd: /etc/nslcd.conf map passwd uid samAccountName map passwd homeDirectoryunixHomeDirectory map group uniqueMembermember It gives us the flexibility we need without using winbind. I was wondering if there was an official way to do this.
