Rowland I think I'll leave it in as I want samba to create the users home directory.? Thanks.?? Next question.? I've got a script that's supposed to run at a user login.? It works for the samba admin account.? I was able to change the permissions in Windows to get a user account to work.? I just tried a second user which I think is part of a different group than the first user and the logon script doesn't seem to run.? Is there a way in Windows (Windows 7 at the moment) to view all Samba AD DC users and groups?? All shared drives are controlled like this right?? No more chmod/chown??? Thanks Carl

AD (Windows or Samba) uses SIDs, so a Windows user should see all users and groups, but only on a Windows computer. It's a bit different on a Unix domain member, Samba makes domain users and groups into Unix ones, but not all of them. I hope you can see from that it depends on where the script is run and how, if it will work. A bit more info will help ;-) Rowland
