aha, so is there any "PDC" equivalent for linux? is it NFS? NIS?Of those two, NIS is the closest -- a primary domain controller is mostly to do with authentication. It's a little more than NIS though since you're talking about establishing trust relationships between machines in a domain rather than just central storage of the authentication database. There isn't really an equivalent for a PDC in Unix/Linux, but the idea of a domain is most closely linked to kerberos.
