similar to: netlogon scripts for machines / groups - possible?

Hi all, Just a quick question about login scripts for a large number of users who change rooms a lot. I have several rooms each with a printer, and nearly a thousand users divided into two main groups - pupils and teachers who change rooms on a routine basis. Is it possible to set up multiple login scripts that would be executed in sequence i.e. run by user is %u, and machine is %m is it

Hi to all, I have recently set up a new linux serveur with SAMBA 3.0.4 + Openldap The server is PDC , users and groups are stored into LDAP All is working fine for the moment, I can join the domain without Pb on a W2k machine. but, Here is my problem : I've some users members of differents groups and not only the "main" group. Like user "joe" First Group :

Hi, I am having a hard time figuring out how to have logon scripts that only execute if the user is a member of a certain group. I had the smart idea of putting the supplemental logon script in a share only available to the group, and then calling it from the normal logon script using "CALL "path_to_script". However it looks like it always executes that CALL even if the user

Hello, This post is similar to what I posted yesterday '"smbclient -L host" to list IP addresses - possible?'. I have a PDC in one place and many workstations in different other places connected using WAN/VPN. These workstations have rather changing IPs assigned by DHCP. Sometimes I need to connect to these machines using VNC, for example, connect to machine AC-PC001 to

Hi List, maybe i missed a hint on google, but i didn?t find a answer to following question: is it possible to cascade the logon scripts...? for example: there is a standard script for all client-pc?s called: netlogon.bat and in addition there is for some client-pc?s a additional script called by the %m switch in smb.conf kind regards Arno

Hello, Is there a list of software phones which will work with Asterisk? For Linux and Windows? I don't have any hardware yet, and before I buy anything I would like to know how Asterisk really works (with software "phones" for example). Tomek

Hello, I'm trying to get my Eicon Diva 2.01 PCI ISDN card working with Asterisk and was told that I still have some chance if I tried using chan_capi. I tried compiling it (chan_capi) on two systems running 2.6 kernels, but got lots of errors. Before I go investigating - is it possible to compile chan_capi on 2.6 kernels? Or does it work with 2.4 ones only? Tomek

I just wanted to know if the domain admin password is stored on the local machine, when that machine joins the domain? Or is it just used to authenticate, and it is not stored anywhere on the workstation? -- Tomek

Hello, I'm about to deploy Samba PDC and several BDCs. As far as I understand Samba and domain logons, this means that a user will be able to log onto any server, with his workstation choosing a domain controller that is probably the closest/fastest etc. one. As a consequence, this also means, that on each server there has to be a copy of a profile of a given user, right? If so, how can

What is the easiest way to allow normal users to install printers (which are available through a Samba server)? Normally, Windows 2000 and XP need to have a printer installed by the admin first on a given workstation - only the it can be used by the user. I want to allow the user to install own printers. Now, when one trises to right click on a printer on a server and "connect", he

Hello, I just compiled and started Asterisk 1.0.2 following "Getting Started With Asterisk Version 0.1a" from http://www.automated.it/guidetoasterisk.htm I made only one change to default config files - I changed from using oss to alsa. I don't have any devices so far. I started asterisk from the command line: # asterisk -vc and I got this warning (this was also before I

Is there a way to run a script on my samba PDC machine when a user logs in and logs out? Thanks in advance. -- Air conditioners and Computers are the same - they both crash when you open Windows.

Hi, this is really great, you can get Windows command

I have an asterisk box and SIP / IAX2 phones. To call out, users have to add 0 (zero) before a real telephone number. That means, that if they want to call someone that has a number 123456, they have to call 0-123456. Simple, right? This has a serious drawback though - when someone calls us from the number 123456, we see the callerID 123456, and we're unable to use the callback/redial

Hi, We're setting up a PDC, and would like to have a login script to deliver the mapped drives to users in particular groups, and connect to printers. The printer drivers come from the [print$], share. Does anyone have any good resources for this? What's the easiest and simplest thing to get going --vbscript or batch files? Thanks, chris

Would this work? The problem is, I do not have roaming profiles in use(As it is not practical for us, as users tend to use the same computers). I want only users with IP from 192.168.1.x to load the databases. The loaddatabases.cmd file in question would contain rem Grab IP address and dump to a file ipconfig >"%userprofile%\ipconfig.txt" echo Checking for your location

I am looking for some solution, working with Samba preferably, which would allow multiple users to work on one document. This means that if a user makes a change to the document, a previous version of that document is saved somewhere else. For example, user A opens a document (rw - read/write, ro - read-only document): rw \\server\share\document.txt User makes some changes, and saves it to

Hello, I want to be 100% sure that rsync copies something from one location to another. However, I did not see an option which would make rsync retry an operation if it failed for whatever reason (network was down when rsync started, or network went down during rsync was copying something, connection timed out etc.). For example, wget has an option like --tries=number Set number of retries

Hello While searching the archives and googling for : -login script to map drives according to group membership I saw lots of complicated solutions (on-the-fly scripts, group directories) etc. but the following works very well for me: I downloade dthe ifmember.exe from the microsoft website, and stuck it in the netlogon directory (not the scripts directory)

I have users that belong to several groups. I want a logon script to be run for each of the groups to which a user belongs. For example, when I logon, I want admin.bat, users.bat, and someothergroup.bat to run. On Novell I used to use 'if Member of groupName...', but I don't know how to do this in Samba.. Thanks, Dean
