I think you would need to set up your Debian machine with samba
acting as a primary domain controller. PDC support is experimental
if present at all, as I recall (it is to be implemented for samba 2.0 IIRC).
Then set your NT workstations to log in to the domain. Your NT workstations
will already have to use passwords set on the Debian box for shares
on the Debian box, but they will need local NT accounts to login. With
domains, you are actually authenticated for login from a remote server too.
