samba - Apr 2002 - winbind logins

Hello,
	We are looking to replace our Source Safe server with cvs, the only
problem is I am required to use our windows NT logins for CVS. I am
hoping that using winbind will solve that problem.

Is it correct that if windbind is setup properly in the nsswitch.conf
than any app that uses the standard login getpwent functions will try to
authenticate via winbind?

You'll need to use the pam_winbind.so module to actually authenticate 
users.
