What are your opinions on when and where to use the differing implementations? Is it possible to use a single NIS server across different platforms (Linux/BSD/Solaris, etc..)? Is it possible to use Win2k for a kerberos server and FreeBSD/Linux authentication clients (I'm aware that you can't use anything but Win2k for a Kerberos server to authenticate Windows clients)? What's the level of difficulty in setting them up? Is there a "simple" solution for small workgroups (say 10 machines)? Thanks.
