I'm looking at reinstalling my server (currently Ubuntu 8.04 LTS) with openSuSE 11.2. Does anyone know of some way that I can configure openSuSE as an Active Directory domain controller? I would like to configure Samba and LDAP with a GUI preferably, and automatically transfer any modifications I make to the client computers. I also need offline authentication.
I was looking at Novell eDirectory, and it appears to be exactly what I am looking for. Is there a tutorial available for how to setup eDirectory on openSuSE? By default it runs on Open Enterprise Server only.

Finally! A total switch to Linux
Previously, I haven't been able to rely totally on Linux because the only computers available to run it on have been old (Pentium II or earlier!), and therefore haven't been able to run KDE (or GNOME) smoothly. But now we have bought a new computer with Windows Vista installed, so that can be the only WIndows machine, and I can now install Linux on the old (Celeron 2.6Ghz, 750MB RAM, 80GB HDD) computer!
I'm going to be using SUSE running KDE as that is the best integrated and supported version (except for Ubuntu, the "beginners OS' in my point of view). I'm waiting in great anticipation for KDE4 to be released October this year (more about that one of these days), and using SUSE should guarantee a smooth upgrade process. So, stay posted, I'll be relating my experiences living in a Linux world as soon as I get it installed (a few days time hopefully).
Long Live Tux!
