This is interesting. I must admit I was with the ICT support officer on this one and was considering unsubscribing from the list. It seems that although I have had a couple of useful suggestions off list no one is forth coming with a solution. I though it was because the people on the list seem to have a vested interest in Linux in education rather than a desire to get SUSE working in schools. The impression I get from you 2 posts are that no one is forth coming as no one has this working in a real life school on any kind of significant scale!
I think that, in fact, lots of us on the list have done things for real on a large scale in a school, but the first thing we did was replace the Windows servers with Gnu/Linux. Consequently we know how to get Samba to behave as PDC and get Windows boxes to authenticate against it, but many of us did this before Winbind came onto the scene, so have no experience of working the other way round. Hence, in spite of wanting to help, we are clueless on the subject :) Cheers -- Phil Driscoll
