Hi, We are adding macintosh file sharing services(3.01) to our Novell server (3.11). This is in a student departmental lab (apprx 500 accts on the server). we have macs running both system 6.0.8 and 7.0 1. There will be many students using the same macs. so each mac can not be individualized for a single user. I am looking for ways to set up the Macintoshes so when a person turns on the mac, it will: 1. prompt them for a username and password without the user manually using the chooser. and log them in without letting them pick which volumes to mount or the save name/password options. 2. i would like to have the users personal directory mounted on the desktop rather than making the user go to it themselves. Is there a way to have the alias function or Novell itself do this?? or if you have any other ideas on a way to setup macs for this type of enviorment, let me know!! all ideas (well within reason) appreciated :-) well this is enough for now... please respond either to me directly (jjp8508@chennov1.tamu.edu) or to this list. Thanks in advance!! _jeff (Loon)
