This seems to be a good idea.
Where should I create this semaphore? I'm just asking if there would be 
some security purposes lead to special places. I was thinking of the 
profile directory. On the other hand that would be more complicated to 
control this from the server side.

I'm a little bit confused. I'm not an administrator. I'm just doing this 
stuff pretty privat. I figured out what GPO and AD means. But google 
keeps telling me the international space station by searching for "ISS". 
So I'd appreciate if you could tell me what ISS means. I'll get/read the 
rest by myself.

And by the way: Am I really the the only one (feeled), who is asking for 
such an event? After logoff the Windows clients save all it's profile 
data back to the designated directory. And after that smbstatus doesn't 
show any connections either. I thought that would be enough condition 
for such an event. That's just my simple thinking ;-)

Thank you, Alex
