restricting "nobody" logons
« on: August 31, 2001, 07:58:38 PM »
Hi,

I am running E-Smith server in a school setting (K-8) as a file server.  Currently the server allows "nobody logons" or in other words....if a kid spells their username wrong...it still lets them in and they don't realize their error until they go to save and their home folder or mapped drive doesn't exist.  Is their a way to restrict the server to only accept users who actually exist?  Any help would be appreciated.  E-Smith has been a godsend  for us as I replaced a bloated and unneccessary Win2k server.  I love it.  Thanks again
