[Samba] Samba and the use of smart cards for authentication

[Simon Posnjak]

Hi,

We have a windows based network. Now we would like to secure all the computers 
with the use of smart cards (so that people can log on with a smart card). 
For testing purposes we bought some card readers and now we are trying to set 
up a testing lab. First problem we ran in to is that we would need W2K Server 
for Active Directory and the MS CA. Until now we used Samba for print and 
file server, so we thought that we would use Samba also for authentication. I 
read a lot of documentation but I didn't find any information about how to 
use smart cards for authentication with Samba. Can this be done? Any 
information would be deeply appreciated? Thank you.
