> But for you it might be a nightmare to have to learn a new domain specific language. Not particularly for me :) Just seeing value proposition for Windows AD - in Linux world, you have to glue together different and competing things for good or worse IDK, but windows just bring that integrated experience OOTB. But good that there exist options in Linux world. It is probably twice++ the effort to manage Lin along Win desktops, so I see why corps don't bother... because you still have to have those windows boxes. And that translates into MS AD for easy management and vast, better or worse, talent pool. I see Windows corps, where appropriate, deploy Linux Servers within infra, for example webservers as that translates into saving $. Samba, yeah, it just really works and good that we have it. But it is only a part in corporate management toolbox. Even MS Active Directory is a part in corporate management toolbox as you still need something like InTune to manage endpoint installs, still some parts must be scripted, monitored, etc.
