And a propos the ADS rant - you can hardly call it an MS invention. For me it is NDS revisited.
And a poor revisit at that. I have had ADS crash and burn at two customers in the last year (unfortunately no backup domain controllers - no we did not set them up). Check out MS's knowledge base article on repairing ADS. It is like a 50 page article that basically ends with "Re-install and restore from tape and synch with other controllers". I have NEVER seen that happen with DNS in all the years I've worked with Netware. Also have seen ADS get all confused more than once in multiple domain sites requiring either finding the server with the least corruption and making it authoritative, or restoring from a known good backup. No way to run an enterprise. Again, whenever a problem has shown up in NDS, a simple DSREPAIR has always fixed everything, without fail.
