After
my last response... I hesitate, but...
If I'm
not mistaken, I read somewhere that the Domain Users group (at least I *think*
it
was
that one) isn't actually a group in the strictest sense of the
word.
Correct away... (crossing my fingers ;)

Does this apply to
the "Domain Users" group ?!?
I ran a script
against our Domain and returned over 10,000 users that are a member of "Domain
Users"

Limitations - max 5000 users per group?
The 5000
user limit is not a 5000 "user" limit, it is a 5000 Direct
member limit. I don't think anyone in their right mind would have 5000 users
in one group. I would suggest nesting them to make them more manageable
anyways.
FYI,
.NET removes this limitation for the nutty people.

Someone
on slashdot.org (pro-linux site) indicated real-world problems with
AD
"Groups aren't scalable, supporting max
5000 users."
I want
to recommend that we keep our people directory flat but if groups have a
maximum of
5000
users, this will be an obstacle. Would anyone care to
comment?

Actually
the size of the directory itself doesn't really affect replication traffic
(except when you bring up a new domain controller). Its the amount of data
that is changed, and how frequently it is changed, that drives the replication
traffic.

I do not believe there is a hard limit. I do know it is capable of
handling millions of objects.
However, keep in
mind that the size will affect replication and thus your
network.

Hi all,
I know this is probably a very general question ,
but is there a limit with relation to active directory size.
Number of folders created ,
data stored ,etc,etc
