Hmmm, are you using NT Domains or AD?

it's AD (i hate it so badly). So to correct myself earlier it would be "Active Directory users and computers". There was a time when i had poledit files working with win2k and winxp but for some reason they aren't working anymore. not after i reformatted the clients. I've always hated gpedit, but if it's the only thing that'll work for 2k/xp then i don't have much of a choice.

Well since you are using AD I'm afraid I don't have a lot of personal experience. I do have a lot of NT Domain experience. And correct me if I am wrong but I would think all you would have to do is set up your Samba server as a PDC and dump the policies in the \NETLOGON share correct?

But since you are using AD I would have to do further research. I know that Samba does have some AD support but I don't know to what extent. Of course you could convert your clients over to NT domains. Depending on how many clients you have would determine the pain in the ass level. Obviously it would be best to test in a lab environment before doing anything harsh.

Well NT will work as well, i've tried dumping ntconfig.pol into /netlogon but it had no affect on the win2k and winxp machines. With win2k it did a little bit, it only messed up the administrator's account. Is there some way to have the clients stop looking for AD and go along with nt so that i can use samba?

This one looks VERY helpful, but it's in Dutch!
Go here:

And enter

Into the URL Box.
Select Dutch as the first language, and English in the second box. It's a very rough translation, but it's very funny! "One Fart 2000 Pentium VI" Somehow Windows got translated into Fart. LOL!  :D    :D    :D  

Hope those help. If not, I'll look some more.
