You *could* do it with openldap, with the WinDoze boxen authenticating
through that. Now, I'll warn you that though it may have improved, a few
years ago, openldap was a nightmare to configure, the documentation
dreadull where it wasn't almost useless, and googling involved a *lot* of
searching.
However, I did put it in in '06 for what wound up to be about 14 or 15
folks, and it worked, and they could change passwords themselves.
