[plug] login script to samba server

[John Usher (Maptek)]

echo > blank
net use j: \\storage\accounts < blank

should just fail if they aren't privileged, but prevent the hang on
waiting for a password...

Subject: [plug] login script to samba server


Need to create a login script for Windows 2000 desktops, one of the
lines in the script needs to check for membership to a certain group.
What we've found is that as the user login the script stops because they
do not have access to the share.

logon.bat

net time \\devnull /set /y
net use h:\\storage\home
net use s: \\storage\shared
if member of "accounts" then
net use j:\\storage\accounts
end

of course the if statement doesn't work.

Does samba have a way of checking if the user that is logging in is a
member of a certain group.
