Perhaps if you explained the issue you are experiencing someone here can
help.

OS authentication does not require any rights on the server if the
authentication
is network based - AD, Kerboros, ...

If the authentication must actually take place on the server, then a user
account
will be needed, at least it works that way on linux/unix.

So the answer is "It depends"  :)
