I had this idea of winbind in mind but was/is never going to use it in this scenario b'cos

--> The linux server that I'm talking about is not just webserver, it does some other things that I don't want to fiddle with local linux accounts. 

--> I was never successful with winbind in the past with WIN2K let alone WIN2K3 with exchange and some other group policies. I am sure there would be many people successful with winbind though. Thanks Michael.

That would have been my suggestion, but I'm not sure how simple that 
would be, not having done it. Thanks, Michael.
