Sadly we won't be able to use Samba's password support as they are interested in AD (for whatever that will buy them)

Do you really care? Active Directory support only gives you authentication. You can use Sambas' password support for that. -----Original Message----- From: Lionel Dyck [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 11, 2003 10:21 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Samba 2.2 and Windows 2003 AD We are doing a TCO (with Microsoft - please don't laugh - crying is allowed) and they are being very adament that Samba 2.2 can not play with a Windows 2003 Active Directory environment. I found some info that indicated that Samba 2.2 can play with a Windows 2000 AD but MS is claiming that Windows 2003 AD is different. Can anyone shed any light on this that would help rebut the MS claims? thx. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Lionel B.
