Hi,

In the Fall we're planning to provide individual accounts for all our lab
users.  As a 40,000 student university, we're planning to have a *lot*
of NDS user objects in one container.  Novell seems to warn against
having more than 10k users in one container, but our tests so far seem
fairly optimistic about NDS's stability above that size.  Any experience
from anyone else on the NDS bleeding edge?  If so, I'd like to share data...

PRINTING ISSUE:  I'd like to have quota'd laser printing from those
accounts.  A.N.D. Technologies has a beta NDS-aware version of of
their pcounter software which seems like it might be the right tool.
Has anyone had any experience with it?  More data-sharing opportunity...

Thanks,
-Mark
