Hi Every1, I am trying to configure Samba as file server in our Windows based network.We have a 2000 DC & all of our clients(80) use 95/98/2000.I have Installed Solaris 8(IA) and configure Samba. Now the problem is that I cant configure the smb.conf to contain all the shares for all the users.Rather I would like to use the [Homes] section in the smb.conf file to generate shares automatically for all users.For that I configure Winbind to talk to my DC.I get all the expected results with the winbind.When I do a "getent passwd" I get the usual unix (/etc/passwd)stlye username list.In smb.conf I configured Template homedir to /export/home/%D/%U.So now If I logon to a system & access the SOlaris system using Network Neighborhood I should see my home directory share automatically which I dont see.If I have same user accounts on Solaris box & DC ,I am able to see the users homedirectory share.Some1 please help me how can I configure samba in my kind of environment easily without having same user accounts on SOlaris as well as dc. Thanks Naag. _________________________________________________________ There is always a better job for you at Monsterindia.com. Go now http://monsterindia.com/rediffin/
