[K12OSN] winbind--Using NT Domain Accounts on Clients

[cliebow at downeast.net]

i use winbind to authenticate seamlessly to win2000 domain from ltsp with
oh 1000 users or so....the pam_mkhomedir section in pam.d/system-auth
creates a local home directory

by rights you sjould be ablt to use pam_mount to mount a users win2000
directory as well..i have never gotten it to work...so i use a stupid
little script that prompts for name and pw and then smbmounts the win2000
directory....i can ship you my scripts if it helps...just practice your
linux rescue techniques and make backup copies of pam.d files..chuck

there is also something called pam_smb which authenticates by attempting an
smbmount based on users input at login ..i didn't play much wwith it
