The Samba set up we're using to support 25 or so Win 95 clients is working well, but my users are usually not up to complicated tasks. Has anyone found a way to get logging out down to a single action (like, Start/Logout), instead of Start/Shutdown/Close all programs and log in as another user/Yes? I'm tired of explaining this already! :) Daryl Daryl Biberdorf darylb@superserve.com

The 'solution' was to write a little program to provide a logout dialog which we could then put a shortcut for on the desktop (and add a hot key sequence for in the Properties dialog). You can find 'Logout95' at rdg.ac.uk/~suq96rcf/tools Run it with '/?' for help on the various options. The are plans for the dialog box to be replaced by a nicer, custom one (instead of the standard Windows MessageBox(), one). Of course, another way would be to install IE4's new desktop... that will give you a 'Logout' option (along with several Mb of other rubbish, too!). - Bob ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- I also seek adventure and fortune in the New World! -> esteban@mince.net ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bob "Mince" Franklin ~{] Tel.
