Just went back of back issues regarding AD, as there very little in SQL & AD BOL!

The included Listings are priceless.

I am very dissapointed that I as a subscriber to SQL Server magazine should have to be subjected to flashing graphics when I am trying to read a useful article such as this. Even Printer Friendly still has a graphic there, flashing away. It's simply pollution that I don't expect to have to put up with. It didn't use to be there - in Print Preview mode anyway.

And this comments box is too small, (and it's scroll bar doesn't work). Are you trying to shut me up?

Thanks for listening.

regards,
Paul Ritchie

The article cleared up some misconceptions about the AD configuration.

If this does what I think it says it does, the possibilities are endless!
