I want to have my windows xp users to login locally to their machine,
but still have them automaticly check the netlogon share or something
like that to apply network mappings and policies per group or user.
I have this working when the user logs onto the domain. He gets a
profile (which i keep local through gpedit.msc). I also know of a way to
apply all those things locally to every machine, but obviously i want to
have this another way.
Domain login could be ok if it's a new user, but i'm talking about +- 50
workstations with local profiles already in use. And it would be the
best to manage them centrally via the server.
Anyway to apply this some way?
I've been searching a lot, and it seems to me at the moment i have to
change everything to every workstations (policy and network drive
mapping) without having to do a lot of jiggling locally with their
profiles.
I rather don't.
I guess i'm not the only one who encountered this problem.
Any suggestions would be very welcome.
Thx for reading,

Hi,
Logon-scripts are one of the features of domain-logons.
you can not get them easily from windows without logging
into the domain.
This is a windows-function, not a samba-thing.
perhaps you would be able to emulate it with a script on every workstation
that knows the domaincontroler, the share where the logonscripts are stored,
and the user actualy logged in, and which is run for everyone logging localy
on to the workstation.
You'll have to write this script, distribute it to every wonrstation by hand and
make shure it gets run.
It is much less trouble to move the actualy used profiles into the domain,
there are many howto's on this topic in the net, and ,afaik, even in the docs
on samba.org
