Shalom nash,

You need an LDAP server. Once you have that this document is useful.

RedHat has a free LDAP server for Fedora that will install on RH Enterprise.

Netscape and HP also offer LDAP servers. Integration with a windows ADS/LDAP server.

nash11,

This link will give you an overview on how to proceed before you start going into the heavy stuff

It always helps me to see it simple first and then go to the complicated part.
