Greg,
Thank you for the reply. I have printed out your reply just because
will take me some time to drill it down. At best I will only have one
"domain controller" I think.
So, I really need 2 DC's opsnorml? Dang!
I am still skittering out on the ice about just creating a "domain."
But, I do see your logic. Just, way above what I may do.
What is "TLD"?
BTW, I have now shut off the "WINS Server" call from all my machines
tcp/ip properties. Now, I have my NetNeighborhood popping open much
faster. I suspect that NetBIOS is now in charge.
Thank you,
Best,
Duncan

The only thing that I would mention is that you'll always want at least two
DCs active so there are two live, fully replicated copies of AD at any given
time. The secondary DC can be virtualized on some other box, but you don't
want to be w/o a live DC. I wouldn't ever do a domain unless I could have
two DCs--even for my "pro-home" configuration.
I agree with using the .local TLD--it eliminates a lot of confusion.
