Thanks Alan.  I'm going to start researching LDAP.  I would like to add authenication for wireless though via FreeRadius.  Are there any good sites/guides on how to do this?
 
Does my network setup need to be like this for it to work:
 
Internet -> Router W/ Wireless ->
Nic1 of server running freeradius
Nic2 Switch that connects rest of network

 LDAP.

 And they generally don't have complicated permissions policies.
They're just too hard to maintain.

 RADIUS is mostly for dial-up or WiFi access.
