The actual line in the config file is 'password server =', and it allows you to specify the NetBIOS name of an authentication server. The auth server can be either another Samba system or a Windows NT system. This function requires that you have your Samba 'security=server' or 'security=domain'. 'man smb.conf' for more information. Samba is extremely well-documented: the included documentation in man pages, the text docs in /usr/share/samba-*/, and additional items at the samba.org website are all great resources. I would highly recommend you use them if you are trying to implement a server in an enterprise environment. There are also Samba mailing lists to which you can subscribe, to get help with your setup. -- Dave Sherman MCSE, MCSA, CCNA "If we wanted you to understand it, we wouldn't call it code."
