So far, I've tried adding a SERVER entry to my bp.conf (which was needed 
anyway) but have not yet gotten it working.  I've confirmed reverse DNS 
entries for the server and Windows boxes and I'm even looking at the 
files in /usr/openv/var/auth.

Thanks for all suggestions so far.  Keep 'em coming.  ;)
