[Casper] Uses for Open Directory

[Ryan Harter]

Hey Guys-

This isn't really a list topic so if you could reply to me off list  
that would be great.

I work in an AD environment managing about 400 Macs.  We have them all  
bound via Admit Mac, I'd like to get rid of it and use Apples built in  
AD support, but we need DFS support.

Anyway, I did some research into a "Golden Triangle" setup last  
summer, using Active Directory and Open Directory on the clients, but  
decided then that I didn't see enough of a benefit.  I was just  
wondering if some of you guys that use this setup would mind giving me  
an idea of some of the ways that you use Open Directory/WGM in your AD  
environment.

As a side note, we are a university and so aren't interested in  
restricting the users like a grade school might be, we just want to be  
able to manage them better.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
