hi,

ich have a win2k network using samba 2.0.9 for filesharing. i want to upgrade to 3.0.2 and use a domain login. but the domain login that is supported by samba is, that the samba-pdc act as a password server, but not manage the central login to the domain. or i am wrong?

what i need is, that the user login one time at the whole domain and than cann access with his rigths all other server in this domain without a login on each server.

is this supported by samba?

thanks

 
umm ... thats how samba works ...

however, if you want each user to have access as 'admin' users you will need to modify each machine and add the users from the domain to the local access list.

i have the latest samba working as a PDC, with profiles and logins, and it is quite straight forward.
