Ok, I apologize if this question has come up. I searched the mailing lists and did not find a conclusive answer. Unless of course I am missing some point. Here is what I am trying to do... I have a domain DEV-DOMAIN. In this domain there is the PDC X (Samba) and Server Y (Windows or Samba). A client that accesses the network uses client machine A (Windows), which is also part of the domain. User Me logs onto the domain from client machine A and is recognized by the PDC as User Me with Power User rights. On Server Y a share has been made free with Power User rights, but not explicitly defined the user. When User Me logs on they want to be able to get access to the Server Y. Exactly how would that be set up? I understand how to setup individual users, create a domain and give user permissions on shares. My question relates to how groups are handled across the domain. I do not seem to see much documentation on this aspect (maybe I am missing something). Could somebody enlighten me on how groups are handled? Thanks Christian Gross

So how would one do that? Using the outline described below. Thanks> > SerpentMage (Christian Gross) wrote: > | Ok, I apologize if this question has come up.
