Hi All,
As mentioned earlier i am new to this.
With my testing i am confused with below lines mentioned in Using Samba 2nd edition subheading 4.4.
or to* log on* to the domain, in the case of Windows NT/2000/XP
Most commonly, the logon script is used to run a net command, such as net >>use, to connect a network drive letter, like this:
net use T: \\toltec\test
This command will make our [test] share (from Chapter 2) show up as the
T: drive in My Computer.
This will happen automatically, and T: will be available to the user at
the beginning of her session, instead
of requiring her to run the net use command or connect the T: drive using
the Map Network Drive
function of Windows Explorer.
Query:- My understanding is samba only offers file, printer share services
and we authenticate user to access these services.
*Is it possible to logon from windows client directly to CIFS Domain ? If
so please share how could i do the same ?*
Usually i starts by login into my windows machine and then mount cifs drive
by using Map Network Drive.

I am new to this and trying to check how logon script runs.
But not able to do so. Though i am able to execute it later from the
share
itself.
Below is my smb.conf file.
[global]
logon script = %U.bat
...
[netlogon]
comment = The domain logon service
path = /var/opt/samba/netlogon
...
Is the logon script available directly in the root of the "netlogon"
share? You use %U.bat, where %U is replaced with the user name (for
example "agupta.bat"). Can you please check if files for each user exist
in /var/opt/samba/netlogon/ ?
To make sure that it's not a problem of variable substitution, temporarily:
- Change "%U.bat" to "script.bat".
- Reload Samba.
- Create the file "/var/opt/samba/netlogon/script.bat" with some
content. For example:
net use X: \\cifs\tmp
- Verify that you can execute the script by double-clicking.
- Log on and see, if the X: drive is mapped.
Regards,
Marc
