Al:
Do you have any link to an MSDN page that
talks about the Program Data container? If you have, let me know (I couldn't
find anything, even a Google search didn't help).
Technically, yes, you can put data
anywhere in Active Directory. But each of those partitions and containers are
there to serve some purpose (otherwise you wouldn't need a config
partition, schema partition, domain parttion and a place for LostAndFound, NTDS
Quotas...etc in domain partiton - technically you could put
everything under one single node in there).
And why would I want to create an OU
structure for an application, if the application hasn't got anything to
do with it? And how does it relate to the existence of a "Program Data"
container? I just wanted to know what goes in there.

"Program Data" container
Technically, you can put data anywhere you
want in Active Directory. However, is there any reason you wouldn't
create your own OU structure for an application?
Have you checked MSDN for information on
the program data container to see what uses it?

Data" container
What is the purpose of "Program Data" container in
the domain naming context of Active Directory? Is it a general purpose
container where I can store any type of data or is it meant for specific
purpose?
Thanks
