samba - Oct 1997 - NT Domain logons and clear text passwords

Hi,

I'm very excited about the NT domain logon stuff but I have a question.
Is/will it be possible to use the "normal" Unix password validation
for
user logons (we don't want to have two password files)? Smbpasswd is 
probably good for machines but we would like to continue using clear text
password and Unix validation for users in the future.

Regards,

the only way to do that would be to write an SMB client and a replacement 
LSA - local security authority.  and a GINA.

try NISGINA.
