This is the follow up to the highly acclaimed 'NT 5: The Next Revolution'. By diving head first into the messy details behind this much anticipated server, this book helps to prepare managers and administrators for actual usage. Provided is an in-depth, objective, and independent perspective of leading industry operating systems issues - not simply the Microsoft view. Handy charts, check lists, and tables are also included to help you find information quickly and easily.
You are taught how to set up Server 2000 from scratch or how to fit it into an existing infrastructure, plus how to test it once it's ready to go. Active Directory features such as domains, replication, namespace, directory schema, LDAP, and naming conventions, are all explained in detail. Coverage of DNS interoperability, security, physical infrastructure, directory synchronisation, and traffic load is also included. Highlighted are features of the migration to Windows Server 2000 from other environments, such as NetWare and past versions of NT.
