So you authenticate against the samba4 ads with your samba3 is this true? Then you can do a root preexec and run a script on your samba3 server every time the users connect to [homes]. Ex:
[homes] root preexec = /path-to-script/./user-home-dir %U Your script user-home-dir (where $1 is the login of the user): #!/bin/bash #if exist directory if test -d /path-to/your-users-home-dirs/$1 then #put Directory is already there in a log file echo "$1 Directory already up and running" >>/system/log/eanm.log else mkdir /path-to/your-users-home-dirs/$1 chmod -R 700 /path-to/your-users-home-dirs/$1 chown -R $1:"Domain Users" / path-to/your-users-home-dirs/$1 echo "/path-to/your-users-home-dirs/$1 created" >>/system/log/anm.log fi Greetings Daniel ----------------------------------------------- EDV Daniel Müller Leitung EDV Tropenklinik Paul-Lechler-Krankenhaus Paul-Lechler-Str. 24 72076 Tübingen Tel.: 07071/206-463, Fax: 07071/206-499 eMail: muel...@tropenklinik.de Internet: www.tropenklinik.de ----------------------------------------------- -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: samba-boun...@lists.samba.org [mailto:samba-boun...@lists.samba.org] Im Auftrag von Lee Allen Gesendet: Mittwoch, 3. Juli 2013 14:56 An: Gémes Géza Cc: samba@lists.samba.org Betreff: Re: [Samba] Logon scripts, home directories, and Samba4 AD Thank you, that works great, and it eliminates the need to create logon scripts for each user. That's a big improvement. ADUC complains it cannot create the folder. Not surprising, because the specified folder \\samba3\username does not really exist -- it's a [homes] share, the true pathname is \\samba3\nas\homes\username. So I still need to create the directory in the samba3 system, and set permissions appropriately. Is there a way around this? The only solution I can see is to write a script that will create the necessary directories when a user is created. But that wouldn't be simple, because it's on a different server -- the user is created on the samba4 ADC and the shares are on the samba3 fileserver.
