hi again, and thanks for replying
i've got it up and running now- unfortunately one of the windows machines i
was testing it with has cost me a couple of hours as it just kept hanging. a
fresh install worked straight away- grrr!
it seemed to prefer my security setting to be domain, but of course as the
machine was messing me about i'm not sure if that's necessary or not.
still, seems to have done the trick, and seems cleaner than using nfs via samba
to get to the home folders. :-)

Subject: RE: [Samba] home folders query
there should be no problem setting up home folders on a non-pdc<br>samba
server. i have such a setup and it works without any
problems.<br><br>as long as you get account authentication working
between the file <br>server and the pdc, it should work. check out the

documentation.<br><br>good luck.<br><br>/franz<br>
