Hello All!
I have installed k12LTSP. I have successfully setup authentication to
our Win2k3 server. I have also setup automount home dirs to
/home/DOMAIN/user. however, some students have problems writing files to
their windows share. it appears that on the windows side, everything is
fine, the owner of created files is correct. But when creating files on
the thin client, it does create them, but it shows the permissions
wrong. it show the owner as root group as root. when this happens, a
student cannot save to that file becuase it sees the owner as root.
however, the student can delete the file. Like I said, windows show the
permissions correctly. I do have some students that do not have the
problem. it shows the owner as them in natilus and group as domain
users. the can write to files just fine. i cannot seem to see any
difference on the win2k3 server between these student. any ideas?

Thanks,
Daniel Kuecker
