Subject: [Samba] Scripting Question and Profile Question


> Hello all:
> 
> I have just setup about 30 new Compaq EVOs with Windows 2000 sp2 
> and have them all up and running well and using the Samba Domain 
> Controller like a charm.  I do have some questions that I am hoping 
> someone will be able to shed some light on.
> 
> 1.  I initially had problems with what appeared to be profile corruption 
> but upon further inspection I found that for some reason, when a 
> person in the domain logged in they tried to connect to their profile 
> as the user "nobody".  This would result in the user being denied 
> their profile since at the time nobody was not allowed.  I added 
> the following to smb.conf
> [global]
> guest account = nobody
> 
> and 
> [profiles]
> guest ok = yes
> 
> and this fixed the profile being denied.  Upon looking at the logs 
> however, I see that the users are still frequently being logged into 
> their profiles as "nobody".  Is this normal?  And has my current 
> setup become incredibly insecure?
> 
> 2.  I have setup all these machines and I am having several small 
> Office 97 bugs that require several registry keys to be edited.  
> Does anyone have the mastery to tell me how to write a login script 
> that will merge some saved registry keys to the local machines registry? 
> Or is there a better way to do this?
> 
> Any help on either of these questions would be most appreciated.
