Had exactly the same.

100 user system, Windows CALs and RDS licenses per user = a lot of money. Found only 40 users needed the CALs, rest were fine on Linux.

Took the devil of a job to persuade them this, as the Microsoft rep told them they couldn't.



In organisation like the NHS something like active directory becomes almost mandatory.

Open sources equivalents are nowhere near as good.


Not the same thing I'm on about. Can't say too much, but was on a system where for majority of users they didn't even touch a Windows server or AD.
