Authentication to Novell

I am wondering whether SQL Server 97 or SQL Server 2000 can be made to
authenticate to Novell. If so what is involved? We wish to consolidate our
user names, passwords, and access. ThanksOur SQL boxes have corresponding IDs on Novell to access
resources and have a Novell client or gateway installed.
You still have to have a Windows login though.

does authentication on token files using workstation resources, and if
successful fetches a blanket username and password from a password server,
substitutes into the connection string, then backs out of the way and allows
native ODBC drivers to work.
