Sorry for raising an old thread (I'm going over my mailing list boxes), but I wanted to share a very much related success story with you.
I'm managing a small network (around 20 workstations and 10 servers) which uses a central authentication against a Linux server. Windows workstations are authenticating against and using roaming profiles from a standard Samba 3 installation with an LDAP backend and Linux workstations and servers authenticate directly through LDAP. Setting it up is not difficult. At first I had an opepldap backend and then it was changed for a Novell eDirectory server, but the setup is fairly similar and not hard to do. Even better, the LDAP server is SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 which comes with openldap/samba configuration as a PDC out of the box, so almost no tweaking is actually needed. If anyone is interested in more details, email me in private.
