K00L!  i have tried LDAP + nss_ldap + pam_ldap combination a 
year ago, but could not make it work so I gave up...  i was trying to 
make a linuxbox authenticate against a win2k box (where the user 
accounts are) so that i don't have to maintain two separate 
accounts...  Has anyone done this and was succesful?  if so, 
would like to study your notes =)...  THANKS!
