Isn't that implied though? I mean, he did say *nix integration :)
Actually Joe is right (much as it pains me to say[1]) because samba apparently is not quite ready <still> for prime time http://us2.samba.org/samba/news/. At least as of a few days ago it wasn't.
So I take that concept back.
If you only needed file access, something like CIFS would work fine. But I believe the requirement is that the poster wanted one identity regardless of operating system.
Centrify and Vintella would therefore come to the top of the list and I retract the comment about samba until it goes live sometime this decade.

[1] not really. He tends to be right most of the time anyway.

Not sure what you mean by redundant fsmo but...As for integration:opensource: samba was supposed to come out with a v4 of their product that looked promising.Centrify and Vintella would be more of what I'd look for however. Much smoother integration.PAM modules could be used if you really wanted to, although it wouldn't be my first choice.NFS? That doesn't solve your issue of single credentials.Al
