For starters - I'd like to contribute to the Cygwin love-fest going on. I think Cygwin is an awesome environment with huge benefits for folks working under windows.
Today I'm interested in finding out wether I can use networked password services with the cygwin inetd. At work I would like to setup a series of computers with Cygwin tools all of which are running the Cygwin inetd. As there are a couple of hundred engineers in this environment the option of maintaining multiple /etc/passwd files is a bit onerous (if not unreasonable). All of these computers are already hooked into an environment where the user passwords are provided and managed centrally to an NT domain. Is there any way I can have Cygwin/inetd use the central domain password service for authentication? - Bruce -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
