OD Scripts Connecting to AD Shared Drives using WGM

[maboone]

Hi:

I have been integrating OD with 10.5.4 into our Windows 2003 AD R2 environment. I have authentication restrictions and MCX applied. I have scripts running remotely using WGM and Computer Groups. I had to enable the 2 options locally on my test clients per the Apple documentation.

Our users have a number of shares in our AD environment. I have been searching for a way to map the user’s shares using OD WGM and a login script. The login scripts run as root and that is where my problem lies. I have tried to customize the script to using $1 (bash shell) with no luck. I get a AD kerberos token with a login so SSO is working correctly. I have the ability to use command+K and map each drive for each user. Our shares are mapped across multiple resources and network locations.

Can anyone point me in a direction that may help me out on this? I am altering settings over the script to give our users admin access with no issues altering the ActiveDirectory.plist file (our users are admins on their machines).

Our end all goal would be to map network shares based upon user groups that exist in AD and even printing resources but we are in the evaluating stages currently.

Thanks in advance for any help that people may be able to provide.
