samba - Aug 2005 - Logon scripts

Hi list! 

 

Need your advice! 

 

Im looking for a way to do this: 

 

I have one SAMBA+LDAP+DNS+DHCP (DC) server running fine in a debian box, my
problem now is that a need to have 2 different logon scripts, one is a
specific user  only, let's say user1 when this user login in winxp client
machine the server send to it a script loginA.cmd, and when all user of
group "Domain Users" logs in  the server users a loginB.cmd 

 

Later a can use this for admin specific scripts or for  "Domain
Admins"
group,  but for now those 2 thing are more important.

 

Thankyou all in advance

Hi Edson,

if I get you right you are talking about a logon script on the 
CLIENT-side (Windows XP)?

We use KIXTART (http://www.kixtart.org) that gives you all necessary 
flexibility (we do e.g. also connect printers for users according to 
their group membership, machine they log on, etc.).

Here we generate the login script on the fly on the server using the root
preexec parameter whenever someone connects to the netlogon share.  A perl
script runs on the server that pulls data from LDAP and checks against all
their group memberships and writes an appropriate windows batch file for
them to run.

Not that this is right for everyone, but it's what we do.
