-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Is it possible to run a Active Directory in native mode by a Windows 2000 server (with 5 CALs), with multiple Samba 3.0 servers, each serving as a PDC for its domain? Anyway, is it legal to login with e.g. 50 clients to the Samba servers, when you have only 5 CALs?

However, you can join Samba servers as domain member servers in an Active Directory domain, even with Windows 2000 running in Native Mode. In this case, Samba makes use of Windows 2000's PDC emulation mode. Jay Ts
