...Introduction to DNS in Windows Server 2003 There are three scenarios in which your network needs DNS. • Firstly, to find Active Directory resources such as Global Catalog Servers and also Domain Controllers that authenticates Logon or Kerberos requests. • Secondly to locate pages on the internet, • Thirdly, mundane task for example, connecting to a printer share. DNS makes it possible for clients to access network resources using alphanumeric names rather than pure IP addresses. Unlike WINS, DNS is hierarchical, with advent of Windows 2000 DNS became dynamic DNS. In practical terms, it means that clients can update their own DNS Server records automatically, thus reducing the administrative load. The killer reason for implementing DNS is that Active Directory relies on DNS for finding Global Catalog, Kerberos and Logon Servers. Before you install DNS on a production network you need to answer a whole series of questions. For example Will your DNS name match our email domain? Who will be in charge of DNS, you or must you rely on a Unix department? One 'Litmus Test' for a difficult topic is the number of specialist terms a component uses. My rule is the more unusual words and acronyms, the more difficult the subject is to master. DNS passes this ' difficulty ' test with flying colours. For instance you need to understand, Namespace, Authoritative, Recursive, and Incremental to name just a few of the DNS keywords. As you learn about DNS Server watch out for ways...

...Comparing Windows XP, Vista, and 2003 Server Comparing Windows XP, Vista, and 2003 for Deployment in Riordan Manufacturing Introduction Riordan Manufacturing will require IT infrastructure upgrades in both server/workstation hardware as well as network and workstation operating systems in order to maintain a competitive edge in the market today. Current operating systems in use at Riordan will either not support or ineffectively utilize resources provided in newer hardware available for procurement. Transitioning to new infrastructure requires a detailed look at the applications required for business processes, the availability and pricing of upgraded software packages to replace current applications, and/or the feasibility of rewriting those applications for modern architectures. The upgrade plan should build as much backward compatibility for older applications as possible, while still maintaining progressive replacement cycles aiding in product support and reliability. Windows XP FEATURES Over the years Microsoft has produced many versions of Windows since 1985. Every version of Windows from 1985 to 1990’s can be considered as a testing phase until Windows 3.0 came out for personal computers. Windows XP Professional integrates the strengths of Windows 2000 Professional. Windows XP offers many enhancements and a reduced total cost of ownership over Windows 2000 while increasing your computer power. Windows XP Professional advanced management and support...

... that you have a great deal of knowledge about this, so I’m wondering if you will act as a consultant for me. I have a dental office in town, and we’re running eight Windows XP workstations and a single server running Windows Server 2003. The person who installed this told me that the server is functioning as a domain controller and the eight workstations are members of an Active Directory domain. The workstations each have 1 gigabyte of memory and a 1.8-gigahertz processor. The video cards support DirectX 9 and have WDDM drivers available from the manufacturer. Three of the workstations are located in a warehouse across town, while the other five in the main office run Microsoft Office applications almost exclusively. The server is also located in the main office. There have been problems with sluggish performance on the warehouse computers when they attempt to access server files. My question is—can I upgrade? If so, what edition should I use? Thank you for help! Response: In this scenario, it would be best to utilize Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit. This system meets all requirements: Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit meets the required minimum of a 1GB processor, 1GB of system memory, and supports DirectX9. To overcome sluggish performance, Windows 7 Ultimate also has BranchCache. BranchCache is the new Windows 7 feature that is designed to reduce the wide area network (WAN) bandwidth utilized by branch office file sharing and provide branch office users with faster and more...

...Student: Winston Cummings Date: February 28, 2014 Course: NT2670, Email and Web Services Assignment: Week 4 Research Preparing an Organization for Exchange Server The Exchange setup requires a Windows 64 Bit Edition to initiate; therefore using Windows 32 Bit Edition isn't supported with installation on the Management Tools from the Exchange 2007 Installation disk. The 32-bit version is for testing only. Many people like to test server software in a virtual environment before making the production plunge, take note that Virtual Server 2005 R2 does not support 64-bit guest’s virtual machines. Even VMware ESX 3.0 only had experimental support for 64-bit guest operating systems. ESX 3.0.1 now includes full support for 64-bit guests, but this is a recent release. Sure, desktop virtualization packages have supported 64-bit guest OSs for a while now, but the enterprise-variety virtualization offerings are just catching up to this. A transition is the process in which you perform an upgrade to Exchange 2007 that is you move data from any legacy Exchange servers in your Exchange organization to new Exchange 2007 Servers, after which you decommission the legacy Exchange servers. A transition should not be confused with a migration, because unlike a transition a migration is the process in which you move data from a non-Exchange messaging system (such as GroupWise, Lotus Notes or Send Mail) to an Exchange organization...

...September 13, 2013, for N234/CET2810C Section 01 Microsoft Exchange Server course. Course Project When dealing with one main building and six surrounding offices it’s best to decide to keep it as simple as possible. By locating everything in one place, since everyone is on the same domain there’s no need to have more than one of anything except when it comes to redundancy. By adding more mail servers and a more domain controllers it has allowed you to have a backup solution in place in case of server failure. All sites will send and receive messages through the Edge Transport Server this will help control the flow of messages coming and going from the internet. The edge transport server also plays a huge role in protecting the users from spam and viruses. Then from within the hospital, deployed inside of the Active Directory Forest the Hub Transport role much like a mail sorter will be handling all flow of messages from within the domain. Also this is where transport rules and journaling rules are applied and it makes sure all the right recipients receive their mail. All messages going back out through the internet to any recipient of one of the six locations will first have to be relayed by the hub transport server to the edge transport server. All messages being submitted to the transport hub server will be SMTP. Simple Mail Transfer Protocol is used to send messages over the internet or from server to server, by using Outlook users are able to receive these messages. Since...
