login scripts

[c.maxwell at a-r-m.com.au]

It's in the man page, as well as being a non-samba-technical question
(correct me if I'm wrong...)

Use something like this in your smb.conf:

    logon script = %G.bat

Where %G = primary group name of the user, so assuming that your primary
group memberships are along the lines of what you describe, you create
two login scripts, mmsgroup.bat and users.bat and put them in the folder
that corresponds to your 'logon path' variable in your smb.conf

Subject: login scripts


I am having a small issue with running login scripts.  I have used them
in the past but now I am at the point where I need different scripts for
different groups.  I have a data management group (mmsgroup) and a users
group (users).  The "mmsgroup" group has access to directories and needs
to be mapped to run applications.  I need to map in a script I can't go
to the machine and do a net use I would be doing that often! Because of
the users.  Don't ask!)  As far as I can see I can only use one login
script or use a script for each user or each machine.  Can I use a login
script for each group?  So I only need to make 2 scripts and not 500.
