[ILUG] authenticating IMAP on linux with NT user details

[Patton, Tony]

tried this, didn't work, is there supposed to be a pamsmbd file on the
system somewhere?

i want the users to be able to access the e-mail using their nt details.

pam_smb is ideal for this really.. install it point it at PDC, change
lines in /etc/pam.d/imap /etc/pam.d/pop and it should work fine ..

I've loads of people doing this already..

winbind is a complete dog to setup I hear.. but it save reproduces users
in local password file ..
