I can say the same as Filipi, and I'm looking for some proper answer on this question too ! Best Regards ! Viktor Posta> Kristyan Osborne wrote: > > Use Winbind. > > HTHPlease, what you mean with use winbind? As far as I know, winbind is used to log unix users in a NT server. Correct me if I'm wrong. Because I would like to the same features Vijendra Agarwal ask for in his message.

Isn't that only going to work if he is authenticating through an NT/2K system? Regards, Alan B.

Its not as clean as it could be - in particular we don't always send particuarly helpful error messages, but it should work for most of what you want to do. Workstation restictions are available in HEAD, where this whole area is handled much better. Configuration is best done via LDAP (due to the fact that you can manuipulate the attributes directly, or tool's are not yet up to scrath) in this case.
