Hi!

Check out nss_ldap:

http://www.padl.com/OSS/nss_ldap.html
(and their pam_ldap at http://www.padl.com/OSS/pam_ldap.html)

There's a mailing list archive for nss_ldap at
http://www.netsys.com/nssldap/index.html

I used to watch the list and I know people have done it using the software
above.  You could use openldap/solaris-built-in ldap to contain the AD data
and point both your Solaris and Windows boxes at it.

Good luck!
