I've tried it with users and it works, but now I can't set it for groups.
I've created a Unix group with the denied users and I've written in
/etc/samba/smbusers:
denied = @denied
also in smb.conf I've set
username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
but I still can't see that group in the "Select user or group" dialog on
Windows
I use Samba 3.0.13
Anyway, that isn't so important. Thanks very much.
I have a Samba server with Windows XP clients, and roaming profiles for
every user. At this moment everyone can log onto any workstation, but it
shouldn't be like that: there are some workstations where anyone can log
into, but three of them should be restricted to some specific users. I
thought about making local users for them, but we need all users to have
roaming profiles, I can't make local users expect for the Administrator
account.
Can this be done with Samba?
OK, it sounds like your samba server is a PDC, so I'll assume it is. This
solution won't work if it's not (I don't think).
If I understand you correctly, you want these specific users to be able to
log into any machine on the network (including the 3 restricted ones),
right? And you want everybody else to be able to log into all the machines
except the 3 restricted ones? I'd probably do this by making a group which
the specific users are all a member of (and nobody else), then go into the
local security policies of the restricted workstations (Control Panel ->
Administratrative Tools -> Local Security Policy), and modifyf the entries
"Log on Locally" and "Deny logon locally" to suit (which will involve
putting your new group into the "log on locally" policy, and removing
"users" from it, and probably a few others as well).
Note: I haven't tested this method, it's just the way I'd try going about
it if I was in your shoes. You can probably even set hte local security
policies through System Policy if you use that - but you'll likely have to
custom write your own policy template.
