Tying nagios logins to AD

[Shawn Iverson]

Kerberos is probably the most secure method to use.  I would also
recommend Services for Unix, if you plan to make all of your *nix
machines authenticate with AD usernames and passwords.  If you decide to
use Kerberos, make certain that you are using version
krb5-workstation-1.3.x or newer.  You won't necessarily need to use
winbind if you are exclusively performing web authentication, though.
