Hello guys. I have a rather uncommon setup, in which a Linux server uses Samba to act as an NT4-style PDC for a domain composed of Win 2K stations. At the moment, CVSNT 57g is running on one of the developers' Win 2K station; I want to migrate it to the Linux server in order to make management and backup easier. There shouldn't be any problem, except I only how to make the clients authenticate through pserver, which would require that the password that CVS stores are changed every time the other authentication passwords are changed. Is there a way to use sspi or ntserver against a Samba server? Is there any other protocol that would fit the bill? This is for an internal network without an internet connection. Password sniffing is not a concern. I need some sort of "single sign-on" solution, and though I'd rather not assume that as a matter of principle, all clients can, in fact, be trusted.
