Exactly! When you un-join the domain does the windows client send any CIFS commands to the domain controller to remove the account? If not, then having an interface script will not do a single bit of good. In my experience, detachinf from a domain is a local-only operation; no commands are sent to the domain controllers. So if you want this functionality you will first have to convince Microsoft to implement it. - John T. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
