I never said there was. Though it's misleading to put it that way. Samba exists, but is not production ready. I was talking about something equivalent, not compatible.
(b) AD on Windows 2003 is a very stable service; in general, Windows 2003 is very stable, provided you don't do anything dumb like install non-M$ applications or services.
Odd comment. So you can't use any software except MS software? Doesn't that cut down the field somewhat? I thought one of the advantages of MS was the large selection of existing software?
Sure, there's a huge load of software for Windows, but as stated, if you're in the need for a STABLE server based on Windows 2003, you shouldn't install anything not distributed on the 2003 CDs. Not even MS Office. (Like I'd run a MS server anyway.. Right..)
(c) AD and Linux play quite nicely together.
For now.
