We all hate Windows Active Directory, but when it comes to managing users and resources on disk, and computer configs, its the best. Yes its a pain to use, but it works for the most part. Samba 3 works, Samba 4 will be better. But until we have really good easy to use tools, I just dont see it replacing a Windows Server in a all Windows office. I need my Windows minions to remote in and do Windows user/file stuff. Command line is to hard for them, we need a good solid GUI to manage all the user/file/system stuff. All it would be doing is managing text files, and reloading services, but its very badly needed.
They show screen shots of OpenOffice, I don't care, show me server stuff, come on people. Show me configs and setups of 1 server 30 Windows boxes with 30 users in a bunch of different configurations, user/file/systems. I would love to go Linux as my Domain Controller, but its not worth the time and energy and headache to do so. -- Trevor On Sun, Mar 13, 2011 at 1:36 AM, Chris Penn <cantorm...@gmail.com> wrote: > http://www.calculate-linux.org/en > Calculate Linux Directory Server can successfully replace Windows NT ® > domain controller (Windows clients supported) and provides additional > services that can be deployed in a matter of minutes: LDAP, Mail, > Jabber and many others. > > I am surprised that I have not seen this distro before, the website > looks like they have been around a while. > > Chris... > > -- > "As we open our newspapers or watch our television screens, we seem to > be continually assaulted by the fruits of Mankind's stupidity." > -Roger Penrose > _______________________________________________ > LinuxUsers mailing list > LinuxUsers@socallinux.org > http://socallinux.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linuxusers >
