- * It uses pam_ldap.so PAM module (libpam-ldap package) for the remote authentication.
- * The configuration of the user home directory is done by a script located at /usr/share/zentyal-desktop/zentyal-setup-user that is ran after login has succeeded.
- * There is a /usr/share/zentyal-desktop/skel directory that contains templates for some of the configured applications.
- * The zentyal-setup-user script gets different needed values from LDAP (connecting to the Zentyal server) and replaces them on the templates.
- * It creates a .zentyal-desktop-configured file on the user home to avoid repeating the process after each login.
- * zentyal-setup-user is ran (using pam_exec.so) as root user, so it adds some actions to the ~/.profile in order to be ran as the login user (some of them are other auxiliary scripts located in /usr/share/zentyal-desktop).
+ * It takes advantage of the Samba server provided by Zentyal Server for the remote authentication and the store of the Roaming Profiles.
+ * The configuration of the user %APPDATA% directory is done by the logon.bat script in the server that calls the zentyal-setup-user.exe and is ran after login has succeeded.
+ * There is a "Zentyal Desktop\templates" directory that contains templates for some of the configured applications.
+ * The zentyal-setup-user.exe program gets different needed values from LDAP (connecting to the Zentyal server) and replaces them on the templates.
+ * It creates a "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Zentyal\Zentyal Desktop\Configured" entry in the registry to avoid repeating the process after each login.
