You should be able to use either LDAP or Kerberos (Win2k and .NET Server
both use Kerberos for authentication). A quick lookup in Google yielded many
results. One of which is http://library.smc.edu/rpa.htm#ldap.

Good luck,
dave

Hello dave,

can perl-ldap module authenticates against an ADSI??
if yes, then i will try to change my authentication mechanism from NT SAM(on
PDC) to ADSI.

Thanks.

AdminMisc simply won't work on non Win32 systems.
I am not aware of any authentication modules that would do what you are
looking for. However years ago there was a groovy open source library that
did interact with an NT domain controller for the sake of authentication. I
had modified an old version of Linux's login to use this library. Basically
it allowed you to logon to the Linux box based on your Windows domain
credentials.  But this was way back in the early 1990's. I have no idea what
is in use today.

I suppose you could use LDAP and try authenticating against an Active
Directory server. Perl does have LDAP modules available.

Maybe someone better versed in authentication can give more details.

Good luck,
dave

Hello Roth,

Actually my problem is that i wanna put up one website on intranet.In which
i wanna authenticate intranet's users to NT Domain Controller(PDC).Also i
wanna get rights of users on shared folders.And also wanna display those
files and folders web-based. I have tred ur Win32::AdminMisc module for
authentication to NT,but only on WIN32 platform. But my webserver is on
Linux-7.2.so,i cant install this module on Linux. Do you have any
alternatives for this?? Its very urgent to me.So,if possible give me some
solutions.I need it in perl only. Even there is some services which i can
run on my PDC and send request to that service for authentication.

Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks in advance.

NT/Win2k/XP/.NET (the NT core). I don't know if it will work under Win32
emulation (eg. WINE).
