Linux & Active Directory.

[BoomAM]

Hi.
Is there a Linux distribution that can do the job of Windows Server 2003 for a Windows network?

Ie; Be the Domain Controller & run Active Directory?

If its possible, just out of curiosity, i'd like to setup a mini network consisting of a computer running a Linux domain controller, and 4-5 of our existing computers, and see what happens.

Thanks in advance all. .

Hmm. Might give it a look over.
Is there nothing thats basically an opensource replacement for Server 2003?

So how well could this replace a Server 2003 PDC?
Is it one of those 'from scratch' things, or can it import profiles/homes/users/groups/gpos from 2K3?
