When you need practical support for Active Directory, this updated edition of the popular Cookbook offers quick solutions to over 300 common and uncommon problems encountered while deploying, administering, and automating Microsoft's network directory service. Active Directory expert Laura E. Hunter provides troubleshooting recipes based on input from Windows administrators and her own experience. Solutions cover LDAP, ADAM, multi-master replication, DNS, Group Policy, the Active Directory Schema, and more. The Cookbook helps you perform tasks from the command line, automate processes using scripting technologies, manage new features like Read-Only Domain Controllers and fine-grained password policies, create domains and trusts, locate users with expiring passwords, apply security filters to group policy objects, check for replication issues, and monitor DNS server performance. Each recipe includes discussions explaining the solutions, allowing you to adapt techniques to similar situations. This resource is ideal for IT professionals using Windows Server 2008, Exchange 2007, and Identity Lifecycle Manager 2007, particularly those looking to automate tasks. The introduction of PowerShell examples will appeal to those transitioning from VBScript, while the comprehensive coverage of changes to Active Directory in Windows Server 2008 enhances its relevance.

When Microsoft launched Windows 2000, the introduction of Active Directory marked a significant change, offering numerous benefits but also posing challenges for network and system administrators. The first edition of this book, a best-seller, provided much-needed assistance, and the updated second edition continues this support for system and network administrators, IT professionals, technical project managers, and programmers. This edition offers a comprehensive overview of Active Directory for both Windows 2000 and Windows Server 2003, highlighting over 100 new and enhanced features in the latter. While Microsoft's documentation is a valuable reference, this book serves as a detailed guide to help users grasp the broader context. It includes technical details for implementing Active Directory, along with new chapters that cover updated features and programmatic interfaces for management. Readers will gain familiarity with key topics such as Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP), multi-master replication, Domain Name System (DNS), Group Policy, and the Active Directory Schema. Authors Robbie Allen and Alistair G. Lowe-Norris bring real-world expertise, with Allen having played a crucial role in deploying Active Directory at Cisco and Lowe-Norris managing enterprise programs at Microsoft U.K. This edition will help navigate the complexities of concepts, design issues, and scripting options to maximize deployment effect
