Hello, I'm using Samba on a Linux server, as a excellent and cheap sollution for an organization in the Netherlands, www.wereldvenster.nl . Now, in this organization there are over 250 users and 30 Windows 98 platforms. Because nobody has a computer for his own, were using domain logons and roaming profiles. This is working very good. Not only the desktop is stored in the roaming profile, but - very important in our case - also the map "My Documents". Now also I'm using LDAP to store account information. I'm very happy with the posibilty to view this information from other computers with a tool like LDAP Account Manager ( see lam.sourceforge.net ) or PHPLdapAdmin (also on sourceforge.net ) . Now we give the users a system name like com011 or com342 or ned224. My problem is, how can I map these userid's to normal names?? I know this can be done with the username map, but it is not that easy to edit this file from other computers.... I would like that the users can log in with their own name. Is there a possibilty to this with LDAP?? To map a "Windows" inlog name to a "LINUX" userid?? Stef
