As Adam already pointed, I also thinks that works from the Windows clients, probably just needs some test. But be aware (and keep in mind) that SMB networks are quite different from Novell Netware. I remember that one can use MARS_NWE to provide Netware access, and if I'm not wrong Samba has some support for it also, but it is far from the Novell proprietary solution or from something like NDS (Novell Directory). > The LDAP suggestion is a good one for controlling departments, > but there are always lots of other associations we cannot predict, > like who becomes a Teaching Assistant for some faculty member > and needs access to grade assignments.

Although you can't predict, you can always react, you can even give group control over LDAP tools for some people, once somebody appears in the group it inherits the permissions, but this is a design story and it is a complete different one. :-) Kind regards, - -- Felipe Augusto van de Wiel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Coordenadoria de Tecnologia da Informação (CTI) - SEDU/PARANACIDADE http://www.paranacidade.org.br/ Phone: (+55 41 3350 3300) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFG8+aiCj65ZxU4gPQRCIW1AKC6Kkv7C2g/rGPvzSle+S5Z3H+iAQCgyC80 nnV1kq5cySU6fsuIIS5SLFE= =LaRr -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
