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!
