Without changing log-in in Windows OS (usually it is username would be Administrator in our company) or changing to share security; how could I make an easy transition. I have created a username or a linux account the users(in our company) their firstname plus lastnames. I have configured the Samba server as the WINS server or master browser. Most of the users would be on the local LAN. Hostnames of Win OS are varied like adminpc, bench, frontdesk etc. All of the servers are linux (DNS, Mail etc.) No LDAP or Kerberos server configured. I think.(?) Most of the users have customized their desktop so if I'm gonna change their log-in names; it would be much conflict with the people. Or is there a better way to this? Using Windows Server is NOT an option. My boss doesn't believe in Windows Server. Sorry guys, I came from Windows Server Administration where security on the our LAN is lax.(we use share level file sharing access.) Of course, accessing the Win Server is another story. Could anyone help me out on this, please? I hope i give you enough info.

(et. al.) My experience with web configuration is it discards the configuration you've done manually. So a little caution to those of us who do their configuration interchangeably. But to most technically incline; the beauty and joy of manual configuration would equal the web interface configuration and plus the awe factor when other people see you doing your configuration adds the genius effect. Mind you, i don't have ill - feelings towards web configuration - as long as it works, right. Thanks for the link! it's a life - saver.
