inconsistent drive mappings + many other errors

[Grimes, David]

My question then is how is this working? And why is it only a problem with
2000 users? I'm concerned the symptoms have me barking up the wrong tree. 

Phil, 
	I have opened a ticket with RH and I did get the suggestion to use
the Fedora build. Which I tried but unfortunately there was a myriad of
dependency failures. And no amount of duck tape and bailing wire could get
the system to behave normal when I used nodeps...

Thanks
DG

Just FYI too; the poster said he was running RedHat ES 3.0, which ships
with MIT Kerberos 1.2.7, which by default does not have the Windows
enctype (23)

RedHat may have backported it, but a quick check says no. They certainly
seem to have no intention of upgrading this package or backporting the
significant changes such as...

What it *also* does not have is support for TCP requests, which means
your Samba system will fail with large tickets normally caused by a
large number of groups *or* an upgrade to 2k3.

We're currently in the process of upgrading from win2k to win2k3 on our
AD controllers, and this is causing us no end of problems. Has anyone
else noticed that the PAC for the same user database is larger from a
2k3 AD controller than a 2000 one?

I would encourage all RedHat Enterprise customers to look at this, and
if it's a problem for you, complain. We've had the (throughly
disappointing) reply "Don't worry, it'll be in RHE 4. Until then, use
the Fedora package!"

Big whoop. What about that 5 year support lifetime I'm paying for?. And
don't use the Fedora package; as far as I know, there are ABI 
differences between the MIT 1.2 and 1.3 libraries.
