Guest Artificer Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 I understand that the recommended minimum speed for active directory connections is 512Kbps. But I wonder, if I only need the authentication features of active directory with no policies or roaming profiles can I have a remote site connected using a 128K frame relay line? Has anybody tried it?

Has anybody tried it? I haven't, but if you go into a GPO, and look at the security and account policies, if there is an option for a speed threshold, these are the ones that do not get applied. This is important especially for the Default Domain GPO to apply to all machines, which require a faster link to be functional. Did you download and read the Microsoft article I previously posted? Very informative about how to setup AD and branch offices. -- Regards, Ace This posting is provided "AS-IS" with no warranties or guarantees and confers no rights.
