Password Sync with NT Network

All:

I'm using Tru64 5.1. The plan is to use the Microsoft Unix tools for
Windows utilities to set up password syncronization between the Unix machine
and the Windows domain used on campus. Microsoft swears that it can be done
on Tru64 v5.0 or greater. I have copied over the libsiasfu.so file to
/usr/shlib. The instructions that Microsoft gives for Tru64 is to then run:
/usr/sbin/siacfg -a SFU -g cs /usr/shlib/libsiasfu.so

There is apparantly a syntax problem with this command, as it returns a
Usage error. There is nothing on the Microsoft site about it. I am hoping
that someone on this list has implemented two-way password syncronization
between Tru64 and Microsoft, and may have some insight on the matter.
Thanks in advance.

By the way, I tried to run the command like the examples in the man pages
for siacfg, and left out the '-g cs', it did not blow up on syntax, but it
caused a memory dump! The man pages really don't offer too much else in the
way of help in this situation.
