In smb.conf, set "security = server" and "password server = name_of_pdc". Samba will transparently authenticate to the PDC and you will not need to manage passwords on the Linux box. You will still need to create and delete accounts and manage group membership. >Is there a way to copy all the user password from winNT pc? How? You really do not want to do that. It would require the users (or you) to update passwords on the Linux box whenever they change on the NT Domain. That is a pain. Tony -- Anthony E.
