Windows Profiles/Scripts in Samba

[Robert Meyer]

I just cheated and made a link on my desktop for rdesktop.  It looks something
like this:
[Desktop Entry]
Comment[C]=
Exec=/usr/local/bin/rdesktop -g 1024x768 accounting.installs.ops
Icon=/home/rmeyer/icons/rdesktop.xpm
MimeType=
Name[C]=Accounting
Path=
ServiceTypes=
SwallowExec=
SwallowTitle=
Terminal=false
TerminalOptions=
Type=Application
X-KDE-SubstituteUID=false
X-KDE-Username=

Hey, I'll even attach the 'rdesktop.xpm' while I'm at it.
