Hi Friends,

Old network guy left the job, and now its on me.
I am struggling to get some answers.

Here is brief info about system I work on:
----------
OS: Red Hat Linux ES 3
Samba Version: 3.0.7-1.3E.1

* GUI is not installed on Linux, so all I have is command prompt.
* Our network have around 20 windows XP clients.
* I use putty to log in Linux as a root.

I want to know that:
--------------------

* How to get all windows client user name and other info from linux
* Usually, Windows client info is stored & configured in linux or in samba ?
-------------------

I have one more question: Another network have
Red Hat Linux 7.2
Samba : 2.2 version
Have 4 Windows2000 clients.

I want to add one more client "WINDOWS XP"
SAMBA 2.2 VERSION SUPPORTS WINDOWS XP AS A CLIENT ????

I know others might howl about this but a good tool may be Webmin for you. It gives you a quasi-gui through a web browser. Go here to get it: http://www.webmin.com Webmin will help you with this and many other tasks. Get some books and learn the command line. In the interim, try Webmin.
