Not as far as I know. Microsoft has been promising directory services since
1993 or so, which led to the reluctance of any third party to bother. Banyan
ported their StreetTalk from Unix to NT years ago, but the FUD from Microsoft
has prevented any serious use. Novell is releasing NDS for NT imminently,
but my understanding is that this will require a NetWare 4 server somewhere
on the network to act as the directory services repository.
