Hi, We've implemented this using RADIUS (pam module from GNU radius from memory). A few advantages, you can manage authentication separately with IAS policies (IAS comes with RADIUS on 2000), you do not have to worry about 2000 domain only mode if you are using it (we are), you only need to open the RADIUS port in one direction using state based firewalls (from memory for windows authentication to work you needed a couple UDP and a couple of TCP ports in both directions), we've found it simply to administer and depending on settings can get good logging information on the 2000 box. May be worth looking at as an option.
