There's an Microsoft document describing in detail how to do something 
like that (Windows Server 2003, you'll be using Active Directory for 
storing user info, and Kerberos for authentication). 
Windows_Security_and_Directory_Services_for_UNIX.pdf.  You can download 
it from:

It is 400 pages long, but all you actually need is contained in maybe 
20-30 pages somewhere in the middle of it.  Basically the document 
describes how to migrate Unix clients to use Windows based services from 
both implementation and project management side.  For what you need, you 
can skip (large) sections dealing with project management.

With slight modificatins, you can use it to get things the other way 
around too, make Windows machines authenticated against Unix based 
Kerberos KDC.
