Subject: [Samba] How to minimize authentication traffic

Hi,
i have to set up a new server far away from home.
At the central i have a Win 2008 native AD server with a samba AD
member. Now i have to install a new server at an other location with a
1
Mbit/s connection. I don't know yet how reliable the connection will
be.
The users "faraway" should not need to manual authenticate to
fileservers in the Central.
What would you recommend? I thought about an new domain with domain
trusts. Or should i make it just an AD member (what happens if the AD
Server is not reachable?)
I think an other setup i have done years before (PDC -LDAP -[P|B]DC)
will not work with AD.
If you don't need exchange you could try a Samba4 AD joined server and
local DNS. Depending on the size of the sattelite location YMMV. For a
large critical production environment, your best bet at this time
would of course be another M$ server.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Andreas
