I gotta' tell you guys that Matt and I spent 3 hours on the phone the
other night and into the wee hours of the morning (thank God for cell
phones with headsets).  We fired up VMware and created a couple VM's of
Ubuntu Server and Ubuntu Desktop (both Dapper).  Matt then proceeded to
show me the replication set up.  It's so simple it's silly.  What's
extremely cool is that now setting up additional replicating Samba/LDAP
servers (or BDC's for you Windows folks) is a breeze.  Now you can have
failover assurance.  I'll really work up some good documentation complete
with screenshots...and maybe a movie or two as soon as NELS UNH wraps up
and I get a little vacation time with the family.  (VMware is going to be
awesome for doing documentation)
