Simple .htaccess using NIS

I have an Apache web server running on Redhat FC4.  I'd like to create a simple .htaccess file or modify the conf file to enable authentication for the entire site but I want it to use our NIS servers.  In the end I don't want to have to add users to a htpasswd file or anything.  If I create a user on my NIS domain I want the Apache server to recognize that and allow the user to login.

Can someone help me with this?


TIA

Well, I`ve waited for some time to see if anyone knows better. As far as I know, it`s just not possible.
Yet you can write a login CGI script instead.
