Hi, i looked through the archives and found that the only suggestion to share the usernames and passwords between unix and nt server is through samba. i have two freebsd boxes pushing nis/yp maps from one to another and that approach is working great. With samba though it looks like i will have to add users to both, nt and unix separately? and then have unix check passwords against the nt server (didn't find clear directions how on samba's web site yet :(. So i guess the questions is what are you all using in such cases when you want to have same username/passwords for users on ntserver and unix boxes and don't want to do double work? TIA.
