Directory services of all kinds, are essentially distributed databases subject to the rules of consistency, integrity, latency, etc. that we have learned over the last 20 years. Or in Novell's case have not learned. NDS is unfortunately compromised by it's Netware heritage: NLM based, hierarchical view of a flat file, poor data type support, loose consistency model, etc.

Server up files or print queues is one thing, running a business on a weak architecture is quite another.
