Subject: Can sshd server use NT/WIN2K's internal password database?

All,

1) Is it possible for sshd to use the NT box's PDC password server? Is there a HOW-TO? I checked the FAQ, and many of the hits I got on Google.

2) If PDC authentication is not possible, can I use the "local NT password database" (created using NT's user tools)?

For now, I just manually "sync" my passwords using 'passwd', but integration would be better.

thanks,

Scott
