samba - Feb 2007 - logon message

I am interested in creating a logon message to be delivered to users  
when they logon. Is this possible? And if so, how can this be done?  
With logon scripts? The majority of my clients are connecting from  
Windows XP Pro, SAMBA is running on Debian Etch.

Thank You

Short: Yes, it's possible.

Long: The "How" depends on your situation however, and since you
don't state much information in this direction...

You can achieve almost anything with Batchfiles on Windows,
especially in conjunction with WSH. Google is your friend for this.

Hi Ben,

One way of doing it is to use a policy file - NTConfig.pol which is 
loaded by each user when they login to the domain from your [netlogon] 
share. The login banner is created with a standard option - check out 
http://www.pcc-services.com/articles/implement_sys_policies.html for 
details of creating your own policy.
