try ssh32 (lookup on google.com will find it)
it works well.

thats not funny. not even a little. :)

the way I figure it I can get passwd change from the samba server to the
nis server working correctly. - that shouldn't be a problem.
I'm worried  about people changing their pw in unix.
I guess its workable.

Can I get pam_ntdom to change pws on a samba domain or do I have to
install smbpasswd everywhere and write an expect wrapper to passwd?
