I think it's a question of whether Win2003 retains the ability to operate in mixed-mode (ie, partial AD, partial domain). Samba 2.x still emulates a NT domain, and if they've dropped support completely for NT domains in Win2003, then they're right.
That said, it would seem to be fairly stupid to do so since a significant chunk of their clientele hasn't converted to Win2K yet -- but consider the source. Samba 3.x plays better with AD, but I don't know about Win2003. -- db ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lionel Dyck" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, June 11, 2003 1:20 PM 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.
