Hi Matthieu, That would be my choice, but the mssql app vendor (tigerpawsoftware.com, basically CRM) said it needed to run on a domain controller to enable use of an email addon. I didn't really question them much about it. Might be a good idea to do that. There can be multiple ADDC, my understanding, anyway. That might be a way to go. I'll check it out.
