Hello @List,
 
We have a pretty complex problem;
 
In our company AD is the one and only directory service, all other "clients" 
need to follow the given settings and guidelines. We are connected via security 
ADS , but every patch session on the PDC `s is a nightmare , does it still work 
or not. So we think about alternatives to the existent situation, pls note , we 
do not have any influence on AD settings. Only security ads is allowed , due to 
security guidelines from HQ.
Now my question, is there a way to bypass this situation, we thought about an 
ldap gateway, or install an "standalone" PDC in a dummy domain ,which sources 
the AD for passwd and group settings , because we need a seamless mounting of 
samba shares in order to provide our clearcase vobs to the XP clients.
 
Maybe someone is in a similar situation and can shre his (here) knowledge to 
the community.
 
Thanks in advance    Martin  Schreiber
