Preferrably free if I can get away with it.  In the eyes of management, "the
current system works okay, why should we pay money to replace it".

Here's the systems I'm trying to integrate:
	SGI IRIX (10), most running 5.3
	HP HP-UX (4), all running 10.20
	RH Linux (3), all running 5.2
	IBM AIX (1) , running 4.1.2
	Sun Solaris (2), running 2.5.1
	Sun SunOS (1), running 4.1.3_U1 (going away soon tho)

Even a good re-write/re-implementation of the current system (which uses
Perl to slice-n-dice a passwd file from a IRIX box into a format acceptable
to each of the other machines) would be okay . .
