When I login using DOMAIN\user - a home dir under /home/DOMAIN/user is created.
This is a default way, maybe it can be changed somewhere
I remember having issues after domain registration with Samba home dis pointing to /home/DOMAIN, so in my ignorance I changed it by hand back to /home in smb.conf. Thus logging in as DOMAIN\user or user always goes to /home/user. Sorry my fault. As I see it, to use the domain user I will have to move my local user home dir contents to /home/DOMAIN/user.
But still, where is uid DOMAIN\user stored? What does Yast -> Windows Domain Memebership do to my config files? I don't know exactly, whether it's _stored_ at all. Active directory membership uses pam_winbind which uses winbind which get user informations
simple way: yes maybe it can be archieved some another way, but I don't know how :( directly from the AD controller. This information is then cache in nscd (something like name service caching daemon, but I'm not sure). But if you want to be AD user, you need to log in as DOMAIN\user -- Lukas Lipavsky, QA Developer Key fingerprint = 5BEB 6AF2 9653 638E EC0E 7E73 9A11 2BC5 FF55 774A --------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX, s.r.o. e-mail: llipavsky@suse.cz Lihovarska 1060/12 tel: +420 284 028 969 190 00 Prague 9 Czech Republic ---------------------------------------------------
