The trick is to use NIS. This enables a centralized server to control all
your user authentication information, instead of having each computer have
/etc/passwd and /etc/shadow files, or the NT equivalent.
There are NIS clients and servers for NT, all bundled with other stuff in a
package called Services for UNIX. My company subscribes to MSDN, and we
installed Services for Unix from somewhere within that monster load of CDs.
I'm afraid I'm not aware of how to get this package elsewhere, nor do I have
any experience in how to set it up for NIS; we're using the package to
provide NFS shares from an NT box. Scrounge around on M****s***'s web pages
and see where you can get this package (assuming you don't have an MSDN
subscription). A word of warning: the documentation for Services for UNIX
is spaghetti.
