Yes this is correct. I'm not sure why there are two domains. I'm not 
working at the central computer center, but i'm sure, they have their 
reasons why they are doing it this way. We are only using this 
infrastructure. The LDAP is storing much more information than only 
simple posixAccounts. It might be, that an AD is not so flexible if you 
want to store more than the standard attributes. But i don't now in 
detail as i am not so familiar with windows ad services.
