Are you sure that is the case? I have had a long series of communications with Buffalo Tech Support about my Linkstation Pro Duo and AD2008 connectivity. The last communication I had from them is copied below. Basically, the Tech Support agent said it was a no-hoper and that I should return the unit for a refund...

Dear Paul
I note your point and do understand that the AD integration is not overly specific in relation to what will or will not work.
However, as mentioned before nothing that we do is going to get this device working with server 2008 which means the unit does need to be returned to your supplier for a refund.
If, after giving your supplier the details of the current situation they fail to refund you, please let us know and we can draw up a document that will allow them to refund you.
Regards
Gerard
