Not sure this is relevant at all, but ….   Have you set the homeDrive attribute?  If this is not set the path for homeDirectory should be local (e.g. C:\homedir).   Tony   -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Tim Hines Sent: Thurs

This is very similar to what we did. But, we've got a book (literally - not a notebook - a 200 page BOOK) over in Legal with all of our 'pre-purchased' domain names. Rarely, do we have to go out and get a new one - except for those instances when a client wants us to have a specific "look and fee

Actually, I don't think contiguous namespace is all that important. We did discontiguous namespaces internally, since we also do some other DNS tricks with subzones for specific locations for non-AD aware machines. We purchased a matching pair of .net and .com domains, and used the .net for an em
