A good problem to have

[Alan Pearson]

Sorry to steal this thread, but what do you think about DSFW ?
It's been on my radar for 2 years since it was announced, but I really
can't see the benefit (except if you really need AD presentation).

You can't have the novell client on the workstations that are in DSFW
domain, which is a major loss (think login scripts + ZW intergration)

I'm also not sure how multisite would work with each edir partition being
a separate 'domain' ?
