[Samba] logon script

[Christian Rost]

Hi,

you don't have access to Samba variables from within your logon script. The most convenient way to solve this is by using the "ifmember.exe" executable from the Windows Server 2003 toolkit and to place it into your netlogon share - you need to google for ifmember.

With ifmember.exe you can test, if the user who is running the logon script, belongs to the specified group. Use the following lines as an example and add it to your logon script:

<....snip....>
\\%SERVER01%\netlogon\ifmember.exe /verbose tech 
if errorlevel 1 goto TECH
:STOPTECH

\\%SERVER01%\netlogon\ifmember.exe /verbose mktg 
if errorlevel 1 goto MKTG
:STOPMKTG

goto END

##
## TECH group 
##
:TECH
if exist k:\nul net use /delete k: /yes
if not exist k:\nul net use k: \\%SERVER01%\tech /persistent:no
goto STOPTECH

##
## MKTG group 
##
:MKTG
if exist l:\nul net use /delete l: /yes
if not exist l:\nul net use l: \\%SERVER01%\tech /persistent:no
goto STOPMKTG

:END
rem This is the End of your script

<...snip...>

Cheers,

Christian
