Interesting. So far, the NFS products I've tested for Win2K have enforced all 
Win2K/domain security policies. But I haven't tried "Windows Services for Unix".

Is this Microsecurity's... ummm... Microsoft's solution for NFS? (Sorry, 
couldn't resist.) I.e., is this part of Win2K or Win2K Server and simply 
optionally installed? If so, cool. Would resolve an unusual issue I've been 
bugged over.

I assume there's a trust relationship of _some_ sort that's established. If so, 
would it likely address concerns of the Win2K administrators who won't allow 
even a restricted account to be created?
