Since you were using NT, did it authenticate users to a Windows
"domain"?
I'm trying to replace our NT RAS server but need some way for users to
be authenticated to our domain. I'd like to use a Linux RAS server but
don't know how well that would work.

What kind of technologies? Can you give us any examples?
