Hi,

        We have multiple UNIX systems that have their own password files.
We are hoping to come up with a method that allows authentication using
the /etc/passwd files on the individual systems.

        Does NETSCAPE offer or plan to offer authentication via
/etc/passwd files on UNIX?

        Is there any other way of using the /etc/passwd files for
authentication other than NETSCAPE's database.

Pros and Cons on the above would be greatly appreciated.
