It depends on how integrated an environment you need. I have used Samba, Windows
services for UNIX, and a NetApps system successfully for file sharing in a mixed
Windows, UNIX, and Linux enviroment. There were a few MAC's to using Dave.

Windows Services for UNIX is suppose to synchronize Windows and UNIX passwords
and you also can integrate NIS and active directory, but I have not tried this.

Has anyone successfully implemented a single sigh on solution in a Unix

If so could you send on product details or a URL to a guide please.

NOT Web based, I know there are a few web based solutions but I need it
in an enterprise with Windows NT and up, Linux servers and MS-SQL.
Client has one logon only or single sign on.

I am looking at kerberos so if I am going down the wrong track please
let me know.

Many thanks
