Subject: [gentoo-user] [OT] linux authentication server

Hi all,
this one's a bit OT...
I have a linux server and multiple (<10) windows xp clients. So far,
each windows client has it's own user and password info stored on it.
This slowly becomes harder to manage as a user has to have an account on
each machine, and has to change passwords in multiple places.
Therefore, I'm looking for an active directory kindof server for linux.
I have minimal experience with AD, if it even is available the way I
think it is for linux, but I have no doubt I can pick up the
administration. Your opinion on your favourite, and why, would be very
useful to me. Any tips / howto would also be great.
thanks!
