We've set up a whole new Samba service for you which is fully integrated into the LDAP service for authentication. If your account is old and you never have used SMB/CIFS service before, your account is missing the LDAP Attributes. If you have problems using this service, please contact us on trouble@th.physik.uni-frankfurt.de
