NIS will allow all the Un*X users to authenticate from one source (You'll have to read up on the interaction between FBSD NIS and Sun/Solaris NIS so the users logging into the Solaris box will auth off a FBSD-based NIS setup) You can use Samba to share out the home directories to the NT clients, and on the other boxes, you can have all the user's homes automounted whenever they log into any of the boxes. This allows central storage and administration for all the accounts. ______________________________________________________________ -Gary Margiotta Voice: (973) 835-7855 TBE Internet Services Fax: (973) 835-4755 http://www.tbe.net E-Mail: gary@tbe.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
