I've
seen some neat things being done with one or a very few machines using
Microsoft's Virtual PC or VMWare to simulate many machines. You could take
a few, well configured PCs to emulate your domain while keeping those PCs on an
isolated network.
Check
out Microsoft's Virtual PC or VMWare to see if they could meet your
requirements.
FYI, a
well configured PC is one with at least a 1GHz processor and a minimum of 1 GB
of RAM. You don't need a network card if you only want the machines to
communicate within one PC host.

Hi
Guys,
Thinking..... any experiences out there on the
below?
I'd
like to have a testlab to directly match my production AD in terms of OUs, GPOs,
Objects, etc, etc. The thing is that I'd like the test domain to be phyically
separate from my production environement.
Any
ideas on how or tools that would enable me
