In linux, is there a way to have a (non-root) user's profile mount a volume at
logon and unmount it when the user logs out?
I have 20 users, each of whom needs access to 1 of 10 shared volumes. There
are about 15 other users who do not need to use the shared volumes at all. I
could just mount all
Is it possible on a LAN with Linux, Irix, and Windows clients for users to have
access to all clients by using the same username/password, but without
redundancy?
So to add a new user, I would go to one server and make the switch and it would
then be usable on all clients.

So could this be my problem? What would it look like if I had iptables but not
netfilter installed?

I've followed Warren's walkthrough of MonMotha's firewall script found at

was that I used 192.168.1.1 instead of 192.168.0.1 for the firewall LAN gateway

Make sure that you have the port mapper running.
Yeah, that was running before I even tried to do anything, out of the box.

You could certainly design a GUI so that it was just as easy (a bad design),
