| Don't know any articles. But we had a high level DBA consultant come in a while back that was simply confused why we were using the non-domain method. He found it difficult to easily setup certain internal functionality to use SQL Server. Things like syncing/mirroring databases without jumping through hoops. He ended up happy working through the challenge.User authentication is another area that the domain method would help. |
