Hello all,

I have got a CentOS 3.5 installation logging on with winbind to a w2k AD domain, and I was wondering if there was a better way to set up users home directories than to have them created on the local linux box (I am running thin clients of this machine). Or, if not possible to set them up with their windows home folders, maybe a way to change the directory permissions on their linux home folders when they are first created so that nobody else can access them? Winbind (I believe) creates the home folders under /home/DOMAIN/USERNAME, all I need is for the folders to be chmodded to 711 or have them created with those permissions.

Any and all ideas would be appreciated.

Thanx

You can configure pam to make homedirs for new users. and sett the correct permissions on them.

This is an example on how it can be done.

session required pam_mkhomedir.so umask=0022 skel=/etc/skel
