[Samba] Login and logout scripts

[Maurice Forte]

Paul,

Recently,  I was trying to do something similar with login/logout scripts 
or the preexec clause but couldn't get it to work.   I am running Samba 
3.0.23c on AIX(not as PDC) with LDAP and 'security='user'  in the smb.conf 
file.   Can you run login/logout scripts without a PDC?   For the Windows 
clients that connect to my Samba server,  I want to capture their 
%USERNAME% and compare it to the user that they are trying to connect to 
the share with?   If they are different,   I want to deny mount access to 
the share.   I looked at the Samba variables but there is no variable for 
capturing the user's login name.    Do you have any ideas on how to 
accomplish such a task?

Thanks,
Maurice Forte

Mauricio,

If you are just using a samba server as the PDC with no MS Windows
domain controller then yes you can have login scripts.

You can also use group membership comparisons within the login script
using a windows tool called ifmember.exe.  Both the vbs/bat files and
ifmember.exe go /etc/netlogon.

To do the group comparison you have do a net groupmap command to map the
unix group with an nt group.

I have done this on a Mac Tiger and Panther server.  If you want more
info mail me directly.  I am going on holiday tomorrow so I may not get
back straight away.
Regards
Paul
