Hi
I'm wondering what techniques people are using to detect domain
controllers when they get on networks. I've asked a few people and the
standard answer seems to be to look for the DNS server as the PDC is
usually also acting as the DNS server. Has anyone else got any better
or alternative techniques they use?
