Product Description

Product Description

Those of you who run networks on Windows 2000 know the benefits of using Active Directory for managing user information and permissions. You also know what a bear it can be. The newer version included with Windows Server 2003 has over 100 new and updated features to simplify deployment, but once it's in place many system administrators still find Active Directory challenging. If you're among those looking for practical hands-on support, help is here with our new Active Directory Cookbook for Windows Server 2003 & Windows 2000, a unique problem-solving guide that offers quick answers for both versions of the directory. The book contains hundreds of step-by-step solutions for both common and uncommon problems that you might encounter with Active Directory on a daily basis--including recipes to deal with the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP), multi-master replication, Domain Name System (DNS), Group Policy, the Active Directory Schema, and many other features. Author Robbie Allen, a Senior Systems Architect at Cisco Systems and co-author of our Active Directory tutorial, based this collection of troubleshooting recipes on his own experience, along with input from Windows administrators throughout the industry. Each recipe includes a discussion to explain how and why the solution works, so you can adapt the problem-solving techniques to similar situations. If your company is considering an upgrade from Windows NT or 2000 to Windows Server 2003, the Active Directory Cookbook for Windows Server 2003 & Windows 2000 will help reduce the time and trouble it takes to configure and deploy Active Directory for your network. This Cookbook is also a perfect companion to Active Directory, the tutorial that experts hail as the best source for understanding Microsoft's network directory service. While Active Directory provides the big picture, Active Directory Cookbook for Windows Server 2003 & Windows 2000 gives you the quick solutions you need to cope with day-to-day dilemmas. Together, these books supply the knowledge and tools so you can get the most out of Active Directory to manage users, groups, computers, domains, organizational units, and security policies on your network.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book - with lots of ready to use scripts (recipies)..., 11 Feb 2004
This book covers almost every scripting aspect of working with active directory. I was in the process of creating a scripted schema extension, when I stumbled over Robbie's website www.rallenhome.com. I immediately bought this book and voila everything worth knowing about schema extensions was ready at hand (In both VBScript, Perl and also LDIFDE examples). IMHO it should be a part of every sysadmins/consultants library ;-)

5.0 out of 5 stars Active Directory Administration - Invaluable, 22 Sep 2004
As a non-programmer, System Administrator and Infrastructure consultant, I found this book immensely valuable. It enabled me to write a multifunctional VB application to verify:
Locked users
User details
Group details
and six other invaluable administrative tasks (so far). These tasks are not normally easily accomplished in a manner or format which can be easily used in a report or that can be copied and pasted. In a simple way, the examples helped me to piece together most of the necessary modules.

Now the adminstrators simply choose the options which create a report and then send the report to their managers.

All achieved from Robbies book!
Excellent book
