While Samba can authenticate from a NT Domain Server. But I don't know of
anyway to get a Linux/Unix login from a NT Domain without using a third
party solution.

Subject: NT Authentication?



Hi all,

I need to set up a lab environment.  Currently there is nothing.  
What I'd *like* to do is set up the environment so that all the 
systems authenticate against a central LDAP or NT PDC server.

The catch is, I don't own the servers I want to authenticate against.
I'm *hoping* the LDAP server exists, but I'm not sure it does. In 
which case, I'd like to authenticate against an NT PDC.

Does anyone know if you *can* authenticate against an NT PDC using 
Linux?  What about with Solaris?  Do I need any special access granted
by the NT PDC to allow hosts to authenticate, such as a domain 
account for each machine ?

The short of it is that I don't want to have to manage user accounts 
if I don't have to :)

Has anyone else done anything like this before?

Thanks!
