#6 Re: Giving users a home directory automatically Posted by Anonymous (216.37.xx.xx) on Fri 9 Jun 2006 at 19:39 you're right about samba not authenticating via PAM, but it will read and respect pam session options In the globals section of smb.conf add: obey pam restrictions = Yes That along with the settings from the article will do it. Home directories will be created automatically on the first access attempt. If you are running windbind watch out for the 'template homedir' directive in smb.conf. HTH cooper
