secure passwd in heterogeneous network

I am running an NIS environment and would like to get away from it for
several reasons. If possible, I would like to change to some sort of
cron/rdist/ssh distribution of passwd files and shadow passwords. In
an environment that includes Tru64 4.0E, SunOS 4.1.4, Solaris 2.6 and
Linux, this looks complicated, as only Linux and Solaris share the same
shadow password file format.

Before I set about writing a bunch of scripts to convert formats, has
anyone done anything like this?
