Hi Davide,
Samba is not really set up yet for 'auditing' services, which is what I
think you're 
kinda looking for;
HOWEVER, take a look at the 'pre-exec' and post-exec' options for the
smb.conf file in the 
smb.conf man page;  you can configure these to execute a program or script
that would write 
to a file or database when the user logs in, and when he logs out, and use
the resulting information to determine access to your other services if you
like...
Hope this helps,
Don

Is it possible to trace Samba authenticated user?

That is, after a user has been authenticated versus a Samba acting
as PDC, is it possible to know if such user is still connected to the
Microsoft
network or they have been disconnected?
What I would like to do is to use Samba as authentication server in
order
to grant the access to other services (for example Internet navigation
through a proxy) and remove the access when such user disconnects
from the network.
