I use to authenticate a unix based application against Win NT using a perl script .

Below is the code I used
********************************
use Win32::AuthenticateUser;
******************************* *

I want to know if the above will work for Windows 2003?
If not, then what changes needs to be done?

Thanks

That should work. If it doesn't you can pull the name from the localmachine and then use the username@domain name. You can also use the full LDAP path to authenticate.

Another option would be to look at the unix services for windows patch. It might let you get around having to use the VBS all-together.
