i'm having problems with preexec scripts... see example below [homes] preexec = mkdir /samba/users/%U do exec scripts only work in a Samba PDC setup or are we able to use exec scripts in any setup ? if you look at the preexec script above, all i'm trying to do is make a dir for the connecting user (i don't need to make an account as the samba server is seup as a domain member server to a NT4 PDC, i'm using winbind for accounts) why wouldn't the script work ? it's to simple for it not to....

Haven't tried it myself, but I remember an answer was that pam_mkhomedir was meant to do precisely that.

exec works in global and share definitions. I haven't tried what you are doing, but simply thinking out loud: Could this be a permissions problem? Is %U defined when you try to call it? Can samba find the mkdir command? Is this a special problem for the [homes] share?
