Hi,

Im in the process of designing an active passive cluster environment for a
web based project (sql 2005 standard on 2003 64 bit enterprise).

Is it possible to install AD as a DC on the Active / passive nodes instead
of using a third server for this task ?

Thank
Scott

AD and SQL do not get along well on the same server.  It is possible to use
a SQL cluster node as an AD controller, but it is not recommended or
supported and is a Bad Idea.
