samba logon script question
 

does anyone know of a way to display a motd at logon for samba clients? the only way I've thought of is to echo motd in the logon script but i don't want to do that. I'd like to have a neat gui popup that would read motd and i could change it daily.

any suggestions? is preexec an answer?

thanks

you send a winpopup message with preexec, so when a user logs on and connects to say a home share preexec smbclient -M `cat motd` The only problem is that the user need to be running winpopup although I guess you could run this from the login script.

Thanks, i'll give it a try and let you know
