Does anyone know of a Pluggable Authentication Module for AIX 4.3.3. I am trying to use an NT PDC to authenticate logins against instead of /etc/passwd. I have a small SP (4 nodes) and several deskside development systems. Our users have to keep their passwords syncronized because their query tools pass the NT password to the UNIX system. I believe that Samba authenticates against NT, but is that only for SMB traffic or does that work with standard telnet clients and query tools? I want my authentication methods to be PAM-AIX Kerberos4 AIX.

Once I get this working, I would like to make one of my AIX development systems a BDC for the NT PDC. Any suggestions on what to use? Samba 2.2? Advanced Server for Unix?
