I understand that and it's your ballpark so you move the infield fence where ever you like. :)
It is a good workable solution though; rock-solid and once setup and locked down is practically hands-free. Those of you who have known me a long time: did you ever think you'd see me touting Linux? :) ________________________________ From: Jonathan [[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, June 13, 2012 4:45 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Active Directory Appliance? Ha! True. This is why I did not place constraints on any of those 3 factors with the exception stating that I did not want something home brewed. I figured that would have implied that I didn't care about trying to do something on the cheap.

My Google-fu seems to be failing me. I know that infoblox has DNS and DHCP hardware appliances, but I don't see anything for Active Directory 2003/2008. I'm only interested in this for remote offices, not for my core. The idea would be to eliminate buying a server, maintaining that server, the OS, etc, for our remote offices. Does such exist, and if so, does the collective brain trust have any experience with them?
