I see. The browser uses lots of tricks to make the display look correct
- manage dsait, sorting, vlv. I'm not sure which of these AD is
complaining about. You might try to first disable manage dsait. Go to
the View menu and make sure Sort and Follow Referrals are unchecked.
Then again, it may be that there is so much Fedora DS specific stuff in
the console directory browser that you may not be able to use it with AD.
