Windows "Domain controller" can get real complicated, because of windows. If/when I need to do something like that, I generally find it easier and more reliable ( as well as less ambiguous ) to let samba on linux *be* the domain controller. Samba generally makes a "better" windows domain controller than does a windows windows domain controller, albeit a generation behind. ( by Microsoft design. The samba guys get caught up pretty quickly ) -- Cowboy http://cowboy.cwf1.com Micro Credo: Never trust a computer bigger than you can lift. _______________________________________________ Rivendell-dev mailing list Rivendell-dev@lists.rivendellaudio.org http://caspian.paravelsystems.com/mailman/listinfo/rivendell-dev
