I've always had to use

then give them a password for smb use... the catch-22 is that SMB uses
a completely different password hash algorithm than Unix/Linux
/etc/passwd(shadow) passwords, so you can't use the one for the other.
Its much much easier if you use a central authentication database like
LDAP (or if its already in use at the site, Active Directory).
Thanks guys,
That's what I guess I didn't know. I was going to use AD integration but
these PC's are dom members but they logon locally as they run some lame software
won't run as a service and needs local admin to work, so I didn't want a domain
username sitting accessible.
you know individual Windows DOMAIN\usernames can be added to the local
Administrators group on a workstation?
