Thanks for your help Chuck,

but doesn't this mean, that I don't have the chance to enter the
NT-account without a password prompt?

For me it is essential to enter whith out any action, because we have a
heterogenous cluster with NT-, linux- and soon also hurd-systems. because
of all this I can't use any NT-remote-admin-tools. Now I hoped I could use
ssh instead.
