Abstract
A user is authenticated at a client machine running a native operating system. Authentication may be effected from one or more non-native server domains including, without limitation, a Server Message Block (SMB) server domain, a DCE Cell, or some other non-Windows NT server domain. Following successful authentication, a user account is dynamically established or updated at the client by retrieving from the server user information and a set of 'group' privileges associated with the authenticated user. A 'user profile' is retrieved from the non-native server domain and used to establish at the client a user desktop and any preferences associated with the user.
