Winbind on SG

Sorry for the direct approach

Am quite taken with the Winbind stuff.

I spend most of my time working in mixed SG/NT
sites .... with NT being the major backbone
of the network.

Winbind on the SGs would solve a lot of problems
for me ... copying passwd files from machine to machine for one :-)
Yes ... I know .. fraught with danger and yes, have had to reach for
the boot CDs a couple of times :-)

NIS .... don't ask :-) ... most of the people left in charge, on site,
REALLY struggle with NIS.  THe last time I rolled out NIS
it lasted until I drove out of the carpark.

Hence, Winbind seems just the ticket ... 

Q. How far away is the IRIX version ???


Regards

Peter de Groot
