Make use of a nortel vpn server that just became available, install this w2k server as a member server, try to install ias on it and have the users authenticate against it since I can't get the SAM databse to replicate the user accounts to it. Hopefully forcing management to see how much of a hassle this really is and probably get some needed attention.
