A supported version of Windows Server 2003 (aka the 2003R2) has the 
RFC2307 extensions in the schema. The installation of the R2 service 
pack extends the schema to include RFC2307, your windows admins simply 
don't get a choice over that bit.

They don't get populated by default however so that is another battle to 
be had, but it is a lot easier to win than a schema extension.
