Thanks for the suggestions. When I'll can go to work I'll start to test the 
Ad solution. All my clients are Windows and the only things I need is the 
client authentication and permit to some user to access to some shared 
folders from the server.

Have you some tutorials/books to help me to configure everything?

Thanks again
