I did that. I saved your email from a long time ago and took all the (I
think) relative info from your smb.conf example and put them in. Currently
when I log onto my XP box, I can see my home folder in the network share,
etc. But if I try to join the domain, it keeps telling me access denied
and invalid user name and/or password.
1. Does anything need to be in this *.bat file or does it just need to see
it in there?
2. I saw a post somewhere where they said xp clients needed to "tone down"
some security options in the local security sections, like requiring
digitally encrypted signatures and the like, so I took there advise and
disabled them (3 options about digital encrypt with domains).
It should be seeing the domain, because it tells me that I have access
denied, etc and telling me I have the wrong name/password. And I can see
my home in the network places, etc. The samba logs all say I am a domain
controller, no error messages, etc.
So any ideas as to what could be wrong?


> Let me know if you need any help. The %U.bat is for username.bat. So if
you create the login scripts per user just name the script the
> username.bat. Then when they login their machine looks for their
username file for the script.

>> This was a subject a while ago. I am trying to setup xp domain logins
to SAMBA. Carl sent me his copy of smb.conf file and a brief
explanation. I am getting stuck on the "logon script = %U.bat" line.
Just exactly how does this logon script get made? What is needed in it
and where should it reside? Any help? Thanks,
