Abstract:
In this paper, we propose the way to set a roaming user profile without using Windows domain composition when building a shared terminal system for smart card users. This proposal aims at using a LDAP server as a user information data base, and enabling each terminal user to set his own work environment. In order to achieve this purpose, we related the user profile with the user ID extracted from smart card, and stored that profile on shared data storage. Furthermore, we built a shared file system besides the above data storage, and assigned the user work environment to that file system. Finally, applying the above system to the actual terminal on network, we confirmed that the target shared terminal environment was realized.
