Depends on what you want to be doing, I mean that there is LDAP
authentication that would be useful for certain/most tasks, using Samba
and LDAP would be a wonderful way to do some things like NT
Authentication.
De facto would be /etc/passwd style but since you want to be central in
account and resource management you would want to look at LDAP, NIS/NIS+
or something of the sort, LDAP is a good solution. Also look at pGINA
modules a simple google search would yeild the desired results, you can
authenticate to a backend LDAP server directly without the need for
SAMBA to do the authentication as a PDC.
Cheers,
Aly.
