this is one of the points that SUSE claim to be better than us for, Ted Haeger 
kept mentioning that to people at the Novell stall across from ours at 
LRL :-) why they are ready for corporate environments etc and we aren't.

it would certainly be nice to have an option similar to what solaris has had 
for ages of "do you want to join this machine to ...." near the end of 
install, although a nicer place might be a tick box/menu in the user info 
screen of ubiquity.
