Active Directory is a lot more than just an LDAP server. The people here http://www.samba.org/ understand this very well and are working together as a team to build a free open source replacement for Active Directory (http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4). Your time and energy would be better spend contributing to this effort rather that going it alone. Regards, Warren. _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
