While it's beyond what you were asking for, here's another vote for Samba
running in SECURITY=DOMAIN mode with winbind if your users are already
authenticating in a Windows Domain / Active Directory type environment.

Word of warning: it is another layer of complexity and relinquishment of
control which can cause some surpises.  For example, our Windows server team
recently broke us when they upgraded the Domain Controllers to Windows
Server 2008 R2 (our permanent fix was to upgrade the Samba version).  That
said, running with winbind is great for end-users and Single Sign On (if
your end-users are on Windows clients authenticating against a domain,
everything just works).
