Third-party cracking utilities are required to accomplish password bruteforcing in UNIX. Shoehorning it into a graphical login in Windows is even more difficult.
"Interactive password authentication" is supposed to mean "Password
typed by a human being in realtime authentication" and nothing else will do.
