Unless you have winbind configured, and a Windows NT/2000/2003 domain with all
the accounts in it. If you have that, you could then install Services for Unix
on the Windows domain controller, and set up each account. Theoretically, it
should work, although I never actually got it to. Apparently some people on this
list have.
