You might be able to sweet talk TAC into working with you, particularly if your problem isn't directly related to AD, but with a doc clearly stating that R2 is not yet supported, I wouldn't make that your primary strategy :-)<br>
<br>I'd suggest holding off until testing has been completed and you have installed any patches necessary to support it.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">Thanks, I had been using this
one:<br>

<br>
The one you linked looks newer.<br>
<br>
When did R2 come out? I saw some commentary on the netpro forums that cisco
doesn't typically update it's compatibility policy for about 60 days after
release of an update like R2.. this didn't look like it was from an official
source so take with a grain of salt.</p>
