I have 5 servers; 3 RedHat and 2 Windows 2003 Server. I would like to use a
single password for all of these. When thinking about this, I had 2
thoughts that came to mind. 1) Setup the 2 Windows servers as domain
controllers and find a mechanism to connect the linux machines to that. 2)
Setup 2 of the linux machines with Samba to act as domain controllers.
Unfortunately, I don't know which is the best option, or if either of these
is the best.

What is the best way for me to do this? In the end, I would like to have
the system administrators be able to login to any of the servers with a
single login. As well, I would like to use the password for specific access
for employees, such as pop3/imap/smtp and a few other integrated services.

Any suggestions or information would be appreciated.

Thank You,
Jason Williard
