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 Yes, the script is in Netlogon.? It maps a bunch of shares to drive letters and remaps local user folders to folders on the server.? Even though the script doesn't seem to run for all users I can still get to the shares on the network.?? How would I go about creating or managing users with this Samba setup under Windows.? Is that possible? Thanks Carl?? Any ideas as to why some of my users don't seem to run the script in the Netlogon share?? Is there a way in Windows to check and see if an attempt was make to run the script?? Or on Linux? Thanks Carl

Rowland Turns out I don't think the script is running for any user.? If I manually run the script all the drive mappings are just stored locally so it looks like it runs on the next logins.? I think I'll try to figure out the GPO method which I think it one of the reasons to upgrade my NT4 domain to an active directory one.?? The main purpose for converting the domain was to be able to use Windows 10 machines.? I tried installing Windows 10 (1909) and join the domain but it's failing with the following error.?? The specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted I've got a Windows 7 machine that was already connected to the NT4 domain and seems to be connected to the new AD domain.? I can disconnect from the domain and reconnect with this machine and it works.? Any ideas about Windows 10??? Thanks Carl
