...Unit 8 Homework Unit 8 Assignment 1 DNS is a server based distributed database management system that translates domains host’s names to IP Addresses. It also allows a computer host or a client to use words instead of numbers to request information from a server or a client. You can get words or numbers to get the information from servers. Unit 8 Assignment 2 In Windows NT, when you make a change to the Security Accounts Manager, the change is applied directly to the Primary Domain Controller and is later replicated to each Backup Domain Controller. In an Active Directory multi-master replication environment, each domain controller contains a copy of Active Directory, not just the information for a single domain. When a change is made to Active Directory, the change is applied to whatever domain controller is the closest, and is then replicated to the remaining domain controllers. This prevents a designated Primary Domain Controller from being overburdened. Centralization sums up a primary reason for implementing Active Directory. The Active Directory structure makes it possible for you to achieve truly centralized management of users, regardless of how big the client’s network has become. In Windows NT a domain is a completely independent entity, and while it's possible to create a trust relationship between domains that exist on a common network, the domains are never truly integrated with each other because there is no higher authority that manages the domains. The domain...

...place FSMO and Global Catalog roles in Active Directory During installation of Active Directory on a Windows Server 2000/2003/2008 all FSMO roles will automatically be installed on the first server. But Best Practice dictates to move some of theese Flexible Single Master of Operation (FSMO) roles to seperate servers. If you only have one domain controller (not recommended), there is nothing to do since all roles must be on this server, but if you have multiple servers you should move some of theese roles on to more servers. It is also important to be aware of what servers are Global Catalog servers, especially if you have more than one domain and even if only one domain, they will be prefered by applications like Exchange server. It is recommended to place the forest roles on one Domain Controller (DC) and the domain roles on another server. If not all Domain Controllers are Global Catalog servers, it is also important to place the infrastructure master on a server that is NOT a Global Catalog server. Recommended Best Practice setup of FSMO roles. Domain Controller #1 Place the two forest roles on this server. * Schema Master * Domain Master Domain Controller #2 Place the domain roles on this server. * RID Master * Infrastructure Master * PDC Emulator If more domains exist in the forest, place the domain roles on a server in theese domains like Domain Controller #2 Global Catalog configuration. In Windows 2008 Active Directory all Domain Controllers are by default...

...Marcy Ostrander Client/Server 1, fall 2015 Saturday AM Mr. Bonie Unit 8 Assignment 1 DNS Zone File: The Just Legal Company in Figmont, Nebraska has acquired a new Internet address – www.justfigmont.com. They want to set up a DNS server. What would a basic DNS file look like? Well first DNS stands for Domain Name System; this is a hierarchical naming system for any resource that can connect to the internet. An example is laptop, desktop, phone and tablet. It translate domain names meaningful for users to the numerical IP addresses needed for the purpose of locating computer services around the world. How would a DNS file look like? Well since computers do not understand our language the URL is translated into an IP address which can be used for further work. Assignment 2 Active Directory Benefits: The Active Directory provides all types of network services. 1) LDAP. 2) Kerberos – based and single sign – on authentication. 3) DNS – based naming and other network information. 4) A central location for network administration and delegation of authority. The main benefit of this service is that it allows for the storage, organization and access to a directory among common items on a network. It allows files, folders, printers and groups to share devices and other objects. The Active Directory was the new addition to Windows Server when Microsoft did away with support for Windows NT.

...affinity towards a certain protein being considered as “active” with respect to it. If it is not known about the binding affinity of a ligand towards the protein, such ligand is conventionally considered as “nonactive” one. In this case, the goal of classification models is to be able to predict whether a new ligand will exhibit strong binding activity toward certain protein biotargets. In the latter case one can expect that such ligands might possess the corresponding type of biological activity and therefore could be used as ‘’hits” for drug design. All ligands in this tutorial are described by means of an extended set of MACCS fingerprints, each of them comprising 1024 bits, the “on” value of each of them indicating the presence of a certain structural feature in ligand, otherwise its value being “off”. Part 1. Two-Class Classification Models. 1. Data and descriptors. The dataset for this tutorial contains 49 ligands of Angeotensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE) and 1797 decoy compounds chosen from the DUD database. The set of "extended" MACCS fingerprints is used as descriptors. 2. Files The following file is supplied for the tutorial: • ace.arff – descriptor and activity values 3. Exercise 1: Building the Trivial model ZeroR In this exercise, we build the trivial model ZeroR, in which all compounds are classified as “nonactive”. The goal is to demonstrate that the accuracy is not a correct choice to measure 1 the performance of...

...NT1330 Unit 7. Exercise 1. AD OU Planning Scenario Review the following scenario: As an IT Administrator, you have been tasked with designing an Active Directory Domain Organizational Unit Structure for a new AD implementation at an existing organization. You are scheduled to meet with the management team and need to formulate a list of questions you will need answered in order to recommend an OU Structure appropriate to the organization. Develop a list of 5-10 questions to guide your design plan. 1.) How is the existing structure of the organization? 2.) How many departments will there be? 3.) How many sub-departments will be needed? These questions will help in documenting the existing structure of the organization so as to divide the administrative tasks into categories and document the administrators who are responsible for each category. Also, these will define the hierarchy of authority in the directory as well as what departments the company will have. 4.) What are the company’s physical/geographical sites? This will address the issue of different geographical divisions which will probably have different computer management needs. The design will be based on management of resources, users and geographical boundaries. This will make the administration easier. 5.) How many OUs will be needed within each Parent OU? 6.) Will departments need to share resources? 7.) What resources are required by each department? 8.) What group policies to be implemented and who’s...

...Matt Carlson IT255.XM1.10WTR Instructor Vincent Tran January 9, 2010 Learner Outcome Project Virtual Lab 1 1. Open the Server Manager console on your Windows Server 2008 computer. What selections are available to you in the left pane? The selections available to me include: Roles, Features, Diagnostics, Configuration, and Storage. 2. Using the Windows Help option, describe any roles and features that are currently installed on this server. There are currently no Roles or Features installed on the server. 3. Explain in your own words why it is a best practice to configure a server, such as a DNS server, with a static IP address rather than allowing it to obtain an IP address using DHCP. To put it simply, if the IP address of the server is consistently being changed by DHCP, then the ports that were opened up to allow the server to work through the firewall are going to be remain opened on the server’s old address, and not necessarily on the new one. This could cause applications to not run properly or at all, but worse, could create security vulnerabilities for the network. A static IP address allows other workstations on the network to easily keep track of the server. 4. Explore the netsh command menus. Record three commands that you can issue from the command line using netsh, and describe what each command does. 1. Exec- runs a script file 2. Add- adds a configuration entry to a list of entries 3.
