SAMBA can pass off user authentication for SMB shares to a NT server, but that doesn't help anywhere else. Something LDAP-ish would probably be nice, but I know nothing about implementing a solution like that right now. Samba can also change the password on an NT server when a user requests it, or vice-versa (something like that... there is a 'password sync' type option), but that requires that accounts already exist on the Unix box. I imagine you are looking for something that would include creating/deleting/syncronizing accounts on all NT/UNIX boxes. If you find anything, I would be interested also. -- Chris Dillon - cdillon@wolves.k12.mo.us - cdillon@inter-linc.net /* FreeBSD: The fastest and most stable server OS on the planet.
