Hi all,

does anyone has an idea of how to do this?

We have a authentication engine, that would also support Unix users to
authenticate in Unix, I was thinking in connecting to the Unix machine
and when if sent the wrong user name or password an error would be
returned and I would not authenticate the user.

Is this possible?

Thanks,

You can try connecting to a simple service that authenticates users on
that Unix box and talk to it (pop3/imap/telnet/ldap?).
Other option is to write your own app for that unix box in c# (Mono
project) that would authenticate users (library call to pam, or
whatever you use to check logins, or maybe Mono.Unix.UnixUser...) and
send feedback if data was ok.
