Samba can use a nis user database.... We do it all the time, so you would have just one user database with either implementation.
Right, I understand this, but LDAP with kerberos would be a more secure implementation. Security was the basis of my suggestion since this is a security list. Samba and nis, while they do work and are probably easier to install/configure, they are less secure. It all depends on what you need though.
