What about looking at it this way...

What if we could import our Unix names and passwords to a Radius server?

Does this sound like what Radius is used for?

I'll check out SAMBA too and Mike H suggested.

Mahalo for your help.

  You should use Samba on Unix.  There are really no alternatives.

  You *may* be able to get Samba to authenticate via RADIUS, but there
probably wouldn't be much point.
