Hello,

  My name is Paulo Brandao, and i study in ISPGaya, here i am a system
administrator of a Linux Machine. Well, i have a big problem, i have a
windowsNT4 server and a Linux server, i have about 50 computers with
windows95,and i use samba to give access to the homes in Linux, and this
is working just fine, my problem is that i have hundreds of accounts and i
must creat for each student an account in Linux and another in windowsNT,
so each student as 2 password's. So i lost hours to creat and administrate
these accounts. What i want to do is by someway to validate a login in the
WindowsNT, or buy another server that uses the SMB protocol. I don't no if
it is possibel because i have to change the login and passwd source code,
but someone told me that that is possible to do using PAM. If someone now
how or another way, i will apreciate. 

Sorry my english, and thank you for your help.

Paulo Brandao
