Not sure exactly how this needs to be setup, but I'm thinking the
following:

Set up one of the FBSD boxes as a file server running NIS, NFS and Samba.

NIS will allow all the Un*X users to authenticate from one source (You'll
have to read up on the interaction between FBSD NIS and Sun/Solaris NIS so
the users logging into the Solaris box will auth off a FBSD-based NIS
setup)

You can use Samba to share out the home directories to the NT clients, and
on the other boxes, you can have all the user's homes automounted whenever
they log into any of the boxes.  This allows central storage and
administration for all the accounts.
