I have been searching for information about implementing Logon Hours with a
Samba 2.2.5 PDC (or for that matter any version of SAMBA) but haven't yet
noticed any postings or correspondence. I have set up a a Samba PDC and
have mapped shares, authenticated users, blah blah blah, .... everything
seems to work fine. I checked with 'rpcclient' to see what sort of
information is returned from 'rpcclient -c "queryuser [rid]" [server]' and
did notice 'logon_hrs' and 'Kickoff Time" fields returned so I assumed I
could specifiy times during a day when a user can/cannot logon to the
domain. I then tried using the standard Windows tools "i.e. User Manager
for Domains" to specifiy logon times but always receive an error "Group Name
could not be found" when I finally click on Ok. As a matter of fact, I get
this error when ever I do click on OK even after just viewing the properties
of Domain Users. I can, however specify the account to be disbaled and this
will disable logon's until I remove the checkbox. So my question is, is it
possible to specify LOGON hours and also have I missed something not obvious
like mapping Domain Users and Domain Admins (RID's) to Unix GID's ? Hmmm,
just curious if anyone has ever been able to specify Logon Hours using any
other tool ... (or even User Manager for Domains !)
Would appeciate any feedback either through the mailing list or directly ...
