Trifonov Concerning your first question: No, we are not running winbindd, so I cannot tell you if it might work. To your second remark: Well, it might be that it has worked in your case, but certainly not in mine. I do not know what happened to the drivers or database of the drivers, but something was really messed up. I like to clarify this and to put it on a higher level. I like to figure out what the procedure is to follow and how we can inform the users about this procedure. -- Met vriendelijke groeten, With kind regards, Mit freundlichen Gruessen, Willy ************************************* W.K.
