I am aware that utilities exist to do this (NIS, Kerberos?) but I have no experience with them, and was wondering what people out there who have done this would recommend for the job. Is there something I don't know about that's better than these two? What are the pros and cons of them? Any help or advice is apreciated. -- Drew Sanford Systems Administrator Planetwe.com Email: drew@planetwe.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
