Further clarification of the requirements would be useful. When and how often do you want to do this? Do you want to use an API or using the 'shell' okay? Is it to be used on Windows & UNIX servers? Does need to work on UD & UV? Do you want to 'spend' any money to get the 'perfect' or quick 'n' dirty and 'free' is what you're after??
If you're simply Windows-only you can use the API provided by BCI (SQLConnect) to authenticate AD users (never tried it, but it *should* work :) YMMV). This would work on UD & UV on Windows. In UV10.3 IBM has introduced PAM support on the UNIX platform, not sure about UD.
