can you change the name to smeserver-loginscript-0.2-6.noarch.rpm to follow naming conventions.

Also a short descript would be good.

Try to have this thread moved to the other forum.

FYI - I added it to the contribs tab.

Did you read my previous post on that?  After some feedback, I said I would.  To date, no feedback, but it seems to work for me.  I don't plan on maintaining this package if I don't have to, so if you want to take it over, please be my guess.  I have done nothing to it, except to try to make it work for me and TIB since he did most of the leg work.

I'd really rather like to see the original owner take back the maintenance of this RPM.  I use it on 6.5 which is why I am interested in using it on 7 as well.

Hi Guys!

Is there any documentation on this contrib?! I've seen a few examples on the forums and searched Daniel van Raay's area... but no luck. Or could someone tell us what it can do?!

regards,
jester.

Quite simple this one.

You install the rpm

In the server manager panel you will see the link ... just click on it and start seting up your netlogon bat file ... there is even an example that you can have a look at and use to build from.

What it does is it only loads the network drives that the person/group is in so eg: you have G:\shared, P:\Purchasing etc.

Lets say Tod is in purchasing and shared and Chris is only in shared ... you can with this tool creat a bat file so that Tod has G and P drive show up as netork drices but Chris can only see G as his network drive .. as well as H for home.

Ohh yeh you can configure home to be whatever drive leter you want with this as well.

Wait till the rpm gets re-named to the correct format first before you load it onto a production system.

Regards,

Tib

Just trying to help. However, I couldn't test it out because I had no idea what it was supposed to do. I would guess most others reading this thread would feel the same way.

you certainly have enough with the great work you do with horde. i don't want to take it over either. If it's working, I just want to make it; available (so it doesn't get lost in the threads) and documented (so we can remember what it does/doesn't do). If you don't want that, I'll be glad to remove it and let it slide in the dismal abyss of the threads.

So would I but I have no idea who that is since it's not documented anywhere. Which is why I'm trying to get some kind of documentation (descrip, changelog) together.

Also, we are in the wrong forum.

OK, I finally got back to this.  I have uploaded the latest version with a new name to the same location as before - http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/contribs/jbennett/sme7/loginscript

Doing this: rpm -qip smeserver-loginscript-0.2-8.noarch.rpm --changelog | more
Name        : smeserver-loginscript        Relocations: (not relocatable)
Version     : 0.2                               Vendor: (none)
Release     : 8                             Build Date: Tue 23 May 2006 07:52:44 AM CDT
Install Date: (not installed)               Build Host: www.thebennetthome4.com
Group       : Networking/Daemons            Source RPM: smeserver-loginscript-0.2-8.src.rpm
Size        : 36499                            License: Freely distributable
Signature   : (none)
Packager    : Daniel van Raay <danielvr@caa.org.au>
Summary     : smeserver module to provide dynamic windows login scripts
Description :
smeserver enhancement that provides an smeserver manager panel
to configure dynamic windows login scripts.

Make sure you set the Domain Master option to yes on the
workgroup panel in the e-smith-manager.

I think the summary and the description tell enough about this RPM.

I did rename the server-manager panel to say Login script manager and sent the rpm and srpm  to Daniel van Raay the original author to see if he plans on maintaining this package or not with a link to this thread for his comments.

EDIT:  email to Daniel bounce back to me, so I guess *WE* will be trying to maintain this contrib.
