We've used slave ldap servers as our "local office" solution, it seems like PITA at first, but really its not much trouble... we redistribute old Optiplex GX100's with bigger IDE drives as the local pdc.

you could set up openldap to do syncrepl and have a full copy of your samba domain stuff that's in ldap. if the connection goes down, the ldap stuff is there and if you have it set up like a bdc, you can still login, etc.



Yep, that's how it's normally done.


what about setting up a BDC in the subnet the router can access by ethernet (builtin switch, subnet behind the router). this connection is alays "on", isn“t it?


It's a solution for a small office.

A couple of workstations, this tiny router running Samba instead of a server; connection to the outside through ADSL, nothing more.

When ADSL doesn't connect (because an employee disconnected the modem, because he needed a power outlet to make tee), we're in trouble.
