Example text

This book is a continuation of Mark’s best-selling line of Windows books and provides a great one-stop-shopping reference book for Microsoft networking concepts. In this chapter, you will learn to    Explain the difference between a domain and a workgroup as it relates to a network investigation Explain the importance of groups within a Microsoft network Understand file permissions as they relate to accessing remote resources Page 38 Connecting Computers The basic unit of any network is the computer.

Having control of the domain controller is having control of the domain. Now that you have a basic understanding of domains and domain controllers, we’ll look at another administrative tool that was introduced to the Windows product line with Windows 2000: Active Directory. From an administrator’s perspective, Active Directory (AD) was a major step forward in centralizing control of policies within a domain. Just as the Registry is a database used to store configuration information for a single system (which we will examine in more detail in Chapter 8), Active Directory stores configuration information for the entire domain.

Domain controllers also store information about accounts (as part of Active Directory). These accounts are valid for logons throughout the domain, they are created on the domain controllers, and they are stored in the domain controllers’ Active Directory. Accordingly, these accounts are referred to as domain accounts. The advantage to a domain account is its portability. For example, if a domain contains 100 computers and a new employee needs the ability to log on to any of the 100 computers, the domain’s administrator need only create one domain user account for the new employee.
