Thanks Laura, I think RDP for Longhorn is rather out for us at
the moment considering we might be RDPing for OCS.. (too much effort for a team
to handle both sadly).
Cheers.
Thank you and have a splendid day!

It would be something to pursue immediately. The RDP program
deadline was already extended once, so it may still be open, but chances are a
bit slim at this point.
Freddy, in case you're wondering why Brian recommended the RDP/TAP
for Longhorn, it's because Longhorn offers full disk encryption, in addition to
several other technologies that are designed for environments just like yours.

I don’t know how large/unique your AD deployment is, but have
you talked to your TAM/Account Team about the possibility of being involved in
RDP/TAP for Longhorn? I am not involved in any accounts that are doing this so
I don’t know what the schedule is, but it could be something to explore.
Thanks,

Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] DC Whole Disk Encryption
Anyone has a working solution for whole disk encryption on DCs?
I’m having the same problem where we have tons of satellite
links – where most of the dcs are on mirrored disk, and the possibility of some
jokers plugging out disk and rebuilding the raid somewhere else is something we
are not willing to rule out.
I know these shouldn’t be deployed in the first place, but we
are in locations where everytime a wind blows the link goes down (Nigeria,
Yangon, Shakalin, Namibia etc) J
Something to keep us going before rodc is available perhaps…
Thank you and have a splendid day!

If it helps you lean further,
I've done same. It takes a really strong argument to get me to deploy a
DC in a remote site. In sites where that's the only infrastructure, then I
usually dig in and refuse flat out.
No reason. Not worth the risks. Not worth the aggravation of maintenance.

And does business stop if the WAN link goes down?
If so the DC isn't going to help you. Remember anyway you have cached
credentials to tide things over.
FWIW I've had sites with magnitudes more workstations/users with no DC and
things were just happy. Different industry/environment, but it's not
always a requirement to have the DC.
