Since this got such a surprising response, I feel compelled to write this as I find myself in an unexpectedly euphoric state of vindication today...
A year ago when my partner was planning her new business and asked me to do the IT I agreed on the sole condition that it'll be a Linux network, my sanity be damned. It took months to piece together from scraps of painfully obtuse documentation, and after some last minute panics and sleepless nights(weeks??) it worked. They have a full AD DC samba network, linux samba servers (DC & NASs all dual redundant) with offsite rsync backup. All Debian workstations all configured via deployed policy from the DCs. The scope got so out of hand it nearly broke me a couple times, but, ADHD... Everything is theirs, and everything is onsite.
I got a message today when she read the news which was just 'Everything working here' I took today off because I couldn't work out how to feel about it all, after last few weeks thinking I'd wasted a year of my life because as everyone in IT knows - no one cares what you did - but in just a day, it became all worth it.
FUCK MICROSOFT lol
