All, Here is the setup. 1. Linux Server(RH6.1) running Samba. 2. Multiple WinME clients connected to the server. 3. One of the WinME clients has distribution media for the various applications used by the business. Is it possible to possible to define a share within smb.conf to point to the directory on the WinME client (say d:\apps)? The idea is that we could then define the logon script for all users so that they have a dedicated drive assignment (say V:\) for the location of all applications. The intent is to streamline the software distribution process for all users and possibly use this to install hot fixes, virus definition etc etc etc. The one solution I have is use smbmount to connect to d:\apps and then have a share refer to the mount point. If this is the only way, I'm comfortable with it. If anyone has any other suggestion, I am all ears/eyes. Thanks. Nick Dewan
Perhaps you could try to use script (*.bat) file. logon script = script.bat hth Yaya From: "N K Dewan" <ndewan@minerva-solutions.com>> All, > > Here is the setup. > > 1.
