Configure Solaris to accept Active Directory user logins

Is it possible to configure a Solaris server to authenticate users against an Active Directory server when logging in via ssh?

I've seen some docs out there, I've followed their instructions, but it does not work. And I'm beginning to wonder if it is possible or even supported by Oracle. The dics I saw seemed to be making the solaris server be an AD client to access shares but i want to get ssh logins working.

Has anyone successfully done this?

It's supplied by Microsoft, AFAIR the name is "Services for Unix".
The PAM plugin takes the AD password - but does not allow to change it.

It IS called "services for Unix"

it's an AD plugin, that I believe is free. This is the same plugin you would use to do LDAP authentication to an MS AD server.
