I have been unable to find an answer to my question on
the net, so I thought I'd just ask here. :)
I'd like to authenticate from a linux client using
samba to a Windows network. Assuming the user's home
directory is somewhere on this network, how do I
determine the ip/path to home in order to mount the
directory during the (client) login scripts, or via
autofs? Before authentication, I do not know anything
about the home servers, and different users may have
different home servers.
Is there some gee-whiz way of doing this with the
samba programs. I'd like to avoid using NIS/NIS+/NYS
since I am assuming the servers are 100% Windows.
Thanks in advance for any help! Let me know if I need
to clarify anything!
