Only problem with the magic triangle is that you must have an Apple server for that, and if you only have 15 macs like us then its not really worth it to get another server just for that.

Kinda sounds right like the problems I had, sometimes it works, and with luck also after a reboot, and then at random times it just refuses to connect again. If you find a solution then I would be happy if you post it here, I might consider putting our macs on the domain again if there's a solution to this.

Well, we have one classroom with 20 macs here, and the plan was to bind them to Active Directory aswell. I could join them to the domain using the tools in system preferences, and everything seemed fine. But after a reboot, the domain could not be found anymore. I have spend a couple of days on this problem, but never found a solution. What we do now, is use a local profile named "student" without password, so every student can log in using that. And I made a script witch give the student the option to enter their student number and password so then it mounts their home directory located on the windows server, so they can access their own files. When user logs off, the student profile is overwritten by a default profile again, so stuff dont get messed up for the next user.
