emissary47 writes "The Samba-TNG (the next generation) team, releases the first beta of Samba-TNG (a Samba fork since 2000) including some very interesting features for everyone willing to replace NT4 domain controllers. With excellent LDAP-backend support, integration of Microsoft tools such as usermanager for domains and servermanager and a powerful command-line tool called rpcclient it is _the_ alternative solution for Windows domain controlling at the moment. They even include scripts for NT4-server migration in order to make a change easier."

Wow, I thought this died. So they've been working since 2000 to replace NT4 (1996?) domain controllers, and now Microsoft has ripped through 2000, XP ... ?

Seems like they're a bit late to the party, not that I don't appreciate the work, but haven't we all pretty much come up with work arounds or are used to dealing with Samba:TOS ?
