Resources for Active Directory / VPN stuff?

[technogeeky]

Hey folks,

Perhaps it's just me but it seems like all the information I can find regarding Domain Controllers (and their interaction with VPN stuff) and Active Directory stuff is always:

1. About Samba specifically.
2. In the Microsoft Help files, which are sometimes thick and not useful
3. On some paysite.

Is there a good place that has free material? I'm not getting paid for this job (it's for my brother's company) so I can't afford to pay.

Is there anyone on here that wouldn't mind talking with me about a few of these concepts?

I'm not a total noob - I am familiar with most *nix technology and some windows stuff, but I have questions about specifics.

Thanks fellas!

I figured I'd get that. No forum section around here seems to have much.

Where the hell do Windows people hide? 🙂

True. The Technical Support questions I have are completely scattered. But the VPN questions including stuff about authentication and domain support are Networking issues and technically this stuff is just Software.

I was looking for perhaps an expert, off-site resource.

Thanks!

Doh! I was so used to finding so many *nix hits on here, I forgot about Windows. 🙂

Any others?
