| Hi Andrew, or other Samba experts.

| it just under the covers things which are hindered?

| and WinXP were options, based on what Samba is today would
| the suggestion be to stick to Win2K?
|
| TIA for any input towards that very question.

Andrew's comments were about the progress tridge has made
in Samba 4 wrt to being an AD DC.  Samba 3 has no problems
with being an nt4 DC for all MS clients (including 2003).



cheers, jerry
