Hello. With my installation of Samba I am thinking to use remote client software installation. For this I need to have access to admin shares on clients: such as C$, D$, ADMIN$, etc.... This is where I have a problem. I can't access those shares using Domain Admin credentials and I can't find any info on this anywhere in docs. Perhaps this task is not as common. Would anyone provide me with pointers on which setting do I need to tweek. I am using: OS: Suse Linux Ent. Server 10. Samba: 3.# with LDAP Back End. Clients: Win 2000/XP Thanks in advance.

You can find more information at Microsoft website and MSDN, not that you are going to find lots of infinite information, but at least a few tips. ;) And you don't need special setup, just point to the workstation and share and give the right credentials. \\workstation\C$> I am using: > OS: Suse Linux Ent.
