ldap groups do not have priveledges as such, it's down to what priveledges you give the user on the system in question. within ldap it's just another container.

As always when one starts using any software reading the documentation
is very recommendable. The link below is kind of smack-bang in the middle,
you may want to read the lot.

When I login to a windows workstation using administrator account (ldap/samba pdc)I have the rights to almost any thing

But any other user which are member of domain user (ldap/samba pdc) There is nothing much I can preform for example I cant even share folders on the widows workstation.

well it looks like you need to step back and actaully look to understand the subject matter sufficiently. we can't teach you ldap outright...

Tell me one thing when you create a user or group where does it get his rights to the workstation he is working. What I understood was you cant set any of this by ldap alone

Hope this is the same ldap related.

Few days back I can login in to my pdc and get my profiles an all from it. But recently I when I reboot a workstation and loges in to the domain I get an error like

Cant find your roaming profile. the reason is network path not found


Even when there is no load att all on the server
But if I log out and log in again it works ok and at the log out time the profiles gets saved without any problem.

Can you tell me what is happening

regards

Asanka
