What is the best way to configure Window clients to authenticate from

I'm not sure but I have a small idea of it : if you don't have an
Active Directory server, a way is to setup a domain controler NT4 like
Samba (free software), It seems little bit complexe as you need to
setup a backend ldap server with a particular schema to store the
information of workstations, then setup the samba server, then join each
XP workstation to the domain of the Samba Server (exactly like AD) .
An another way is to replace the Gina.dll in windows XP by a new Gina to
auth from various source as ldap (there are some free project like
pGina.org that is hosted on sourceforge). In google look after "Gina" or
"pGina.org". I suppose you will need to replace the DLL and configure
each workstation that is waste time on a big park of stations.
