    So upper, non-IT management has decided to dump our 10.4 server and going for Microsoft everything on the server.

    We currently have about 40 desktops, 5 of which are running 10.4.9 and the rest XP. I really don’t want our Macs to become 2nd class citizens on this network and also don’t want my Mac users nor myself to have to jump through a lot of hoops. What I’d like to do is find something that’s going to bind them to AD and allow me to manage their MCX settings just as though I were managing the XPs. Resource forks are also a concern since we still get a lot of older Quark files from clients and Type1 fonts.

    I’m starting to read through the ADmitMac, ExtremeZ-IP, and Centrify stuff but am a bit confused as to which is going to offer me everything that I’m looking for. Any recommendations? Caveats? Things that I should be aware of?

    Thanks.

    Yes, we have OSX Server in place, but I’ve been told to recommission the Mac Pro that it’s on back to a workstation. What’s stopping me? Office politics.

    I’m having a bit of difficulty in understanding what the difference is between these 3 products. It does seem as though you can’t manage MCX settings with EZIP.
