samba can host a domain controller? can it do group policy, acls, or even connect to windows domains under its default configuration? you wish. the best linux had going for it was the novell networking stuff

No, and as a matter of fact it shouldn't have an integrated domain controller. The domain controller should host it. *

Yes? Though again, that's not part of the server, that's part of what you're hosting.

Either way, I'm pretty sure this has little to do with Luka88bg's question :P

EDIT: * I didn't understand what you were saying, sorry. You mean an NT Domain controller. Samba can host them since version 2.

was put impeccably into words at DebianDay for me last Saturday, by Knut Yrvin of Trolltech - adults try something once, fail, and then are like "ffs this doesn't work". Children try, fail, and then try again, and succeed - maybe on the second, or even fifth retry. But the thing is that they keep at it and overcome the problems in the end.
