This is, personnaly, the way I think E-Smith should go as far as the
next "big" step is concerned. Combined with Samba-3.0 (the 3.01rc1 was
just announced a few days ago) would put together a very powerful little
PDC for a MS client network that would have the ability to interface
with the MS Active Directory.

Porting to another distro may be inevitable, but we probably have at
least a year to do so.
